Adult day care if your LO attends. What Covid preventions are in place now?

Deaths from COVID are way down and all restrictions are removed in the community. It was recently reported that 75% have been exposed which means heard immunity is with us. So either vaccinate, or choose to personally wear a mask. We are in the new normal and we are not living in a bubble

My BIL has a PHD in immunology. He says masks don't work.

I think after 3 yrs, COVID is here to stay. Its going to be like the Flu and you will get a shot each year for the new strain. The flu kills the elderly too.

A face mask was required to enter the old building long after the mandate ended. It's no different than a doctors office full of people without a mask. I know several people who were fully vaccinated die of covid.

My MIL's LTC facility has barely had a report of covid of staff or residents anymore. They stopped following the guidelines once they were officially ended. It may be due to herd immunity plus the availability of vaccines plus the weakened iteration of the virus, which now has much less profound impact.

The onus to protect is now an individual responsibility.

When wife uncle's nursing home and medical offices/facilities stopped requiring protection measures like masks, DW was told this was due to the covid emergency officially ending on a Federal level this year.  
 
Free testing sites were closed down. Self-testing is recommended if warranted or a special appointment made with a provider for testing. NP at nursing home can order testing for residents if covid is suspected. Testing is still free in other countries where I've worked on assignment. Not covid tests alone but most  medical care is free in these countires. Not quality and not timely. Long wait times. For all it's flaws, I think the U.S. system is best.

Nowdays if nursing home resident is covid positive, they are kept in their room but not in a special section for isolation and there's no restriction on visitors to the facility. This is a complete turn-around from being shut tight and no one allowed in for 15 months!

There doesn't appear to be much worry these days. Is there herd-immunity now? That's what we hear.  DW still masks in close quarters and worries excessively. Neither her or our parents have ever contracted covid.

I don't have a loved one that goes to Day Care. But, regularly go to a Senior Center that has seniors dropped off and they spend the day there with help from the staff. It's a type of a day care for them, mixed with walk ins like me for Bingo, crafts, lunch, etc.

There are no Covid precautions that I've noticed. None of us social distance, no masks, etc. Covid has not been mentioned by the staff while I've been there. We sit in groups at tables to eat lunch.

Edited: I deleted what I originally said about hand sanitizer. As, I do remember seeing one in the lunch room.

No idea if anyone's vaccinated or not, and I was not asked about it when I signed up last month.

Tbh I think you will be hard pressed to find a place that enforces such guidelines, at this point I think it is mostly up to the person to do what they feel is best for their own safety. Doubt anyone will stop you, but I also doubt the staff will go out of there way to police it maintain it.

Nothing beyond a hand sanitizer at the front door.

Our new Senior Center building opened in January of this year. It has an air purification system. Masks are optional and hand washing is encouraged. The former buildingmmasks were required My mother attends a group every Tuesday & Thursday. We test often and are negative.

I haven't seen anywhere with covid prevention policies still in place. Not nursing home, hospital, doctor office. I don't know about adult day care. Can you call to ask?

My mother's Adult Day also never required vaccines but I live in an extremely conservative town.

My local Senior Center (I don't belong, but have friends who do) has NEVER required vaccines. Catholic Charities is the local contract agency and they state that to require vaccines would be a violation of religious freedom.
