The Covid-19 pandemic has certainly changed the way we look at the world and our daily lives and habits. Everyone wears a mask, washes their hands, and avoids close contact with people other than close family. Health care workers, including those who work in Home Health Care, are particularly at risk and we have been relying on the guidelines as set forth by the Centers for Disease Control (CDC) and National Institutes of Health (NIH).
Doctors, Nurses, and everyone else who works in hospitals, medical offices, clinics, and homes have been eagerly waiting for the United States Department of Labor – Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) Emergency Temporary Standard (ETS) which provides detailed rules for employers required to keep employees safe. The report was just released and specifics can be found by clicking here.

Keeping our patients and employees safe is priority number one for Feingold Home Health Services. Our entire staff is trained on the latest safety procedures and we have the proper personal protective equipment (PPE) to follow them.
