[MCOH-EH] Travel Restrictions and Quarantines **EXTERNAL**

[Mindy T. Dube]

Our facility is aligning with the State guidelines around recommended quarantine after travel.

Our state is now recommending that for anyone who travels outside of New England they must quarantine for 7 days upon return and if still asymptomatic on day 7 is eligible for a Covid test and return to work if negative.  What our facility is adding is that if the employee returns they must still follow enhanced monitoring for the remaining 7 days with twice daily temperature checks and symptom monitoring.

We are taking a more nuanced approach with a travel risk assessment that considers travel mode, lodging, and behaviors along with destination.  So far it seems to be effective in combination with our daily symptom checker.  Would love to know how others are approaching this. Amy

Hello All,



I am curious to know what you all are doing about state recommended quarantine after travel.



Does your state have such a list that recommends a 14 day home quarantine after traveling to a state on the list?



Are you requiring your employees to home quarantine for 14 days after returning from a state on such a list?



Thanks,
