Important Clarification re: NC DHHS COVID-19 Update—January 6, 2022
Sent on Behalf of NC DHHS
IMPORTANT CLARIFICATION:
 
Dear Adult Care Home & Family Care Home Providers:
 
The guidance that was just sent out (see here) related to Isolation and Quarantine is guidance for the general public, NOT for adult care homes and other long-term care facilities. 
 
Adult care homes and family care homes should continue to follow the NC DHHS guidance for visitation, testing, and quarantine for long-term care facilities issued in November. The guidance can be found at https://covid19.ncdhhs.gov/media/2334/open.
 
Thank you for your continued efforts to prevent the spread of COVID-19 and I hope you stay well.
 
Best,
Megan Lamphere
Chief, DHSR Adult Care Licensure Section
