[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think you need a negative covid test to know they are no longer shedding. I would also alert the elderly person and assuming the person has full cognitive capacity, see what guidelines the person wants-symptom free/negative covid test/wear mask and gloves as precaution. We barely get symptoms with Covid, but so many elderly really struggle with it.[/quote] We did/will test before the kids go back to work and school, and have been testing the kid who stayed healthy every day. But my feeling is that the requirements for seeing their elder friends should be higher. Both facilities are giving the same guidelines that someone posted above for medical personnel, but I feel like those are too short for more recreational visitors. One facility is memory care, and at the other there are also cognitive issues so asking residents isn't an option. [/quote]
