3 things to consider for accepting visitors into an aged-care facility

According to the New York Times, one-third of all COVID-19 related deaths are from residents and workers of nursing homes and long-term aged-care facilities. 

That’s why, if you’re running an aged-care facility, it’s vital you take the appropriate steps to protect society’s most vulnerable population during the pandemic. However, knowing what the best course of action is to protect the elderly and your workers in aged-care facilities can be challenging.

Below, we’ll explore three key factors to take into account if you’re allowing visitors into an aged-care facility during and after the global coronavirus pandemic. Although these factors are based on USA guidelines and perspectives, these guides can be helpful whichever country you’re in. We highly recommend you also check your local policy to ensure these factors align with local rules and guidance.
