Hello PSWs & Homemakers,
I want to share some important news about using your company mobile devices. Circle of Care has made changes, and the self-screening and client screening functions have been removed from the PSW app. The Ministry of Health doesn’t need you to do active screening anymore, but it’s still crucial to watch over yourself and your clients every day.
Even though we have relaxed some rules, Circle of Care is still very serious about protecting against COVID-19 and other infectious diseases. So, when you visit a client, please keep asking questions about their health. Pay attention and see if they have any new symptoms. Ask them how they feel. If you think the client might be sick or they tell you they are, please tell your Supervisor and wear extra protective gear as needed. And remember that you are still required to wear a mask for every client visit.
Your health and safety are incredibly important to us. So, if you don’t feel well or have symptoms of COVID-19 or any other sickness, don’t come to work. Take 24-48 hours off and contact your Supervisor or the Health and Wellness Specialist if you have questions about when to return.
Thank you for the excellent work you do every day for our clients and our organization. We truly appreciate it.
If you have any questions or concerns, please feel free to contact me or the HR team.
Take care and stay safe.
Best regards,
Johanne Loughrey
Manager of Client Services and Professional Practice
