Screening
This checklist is derived from https://www.ahcancal.org/facility_operations/disaster_planning/Documents/COVID19-Screening-Checklist-SNF-Visitors.pdf
On March 13, 2020, CMS and CDC updated guidance on restricting all SNF visitors and non-essential healthcare personnel, except for certain compassionate care situations, such as end-of-life
ALL individuals (employees, family, visitors, government officials) entering the building must be asked the following questions:
Has this individual washed their hands or used alcohol-based hand rub (ABHR) on entry?
- Fever
- Sore throat
- Cough
- New shortness of breath
If NO to all, is the individual an employee of this institution?
Note: Assisted Living Providers can use this checklist as feasible for their community
