By proceeding, I agree that I understand the following disclosures:
I. How We Work in Washington. Based on your preferences, we provide you with information about one or more of our contracted senior living providers ("Participating Communities") and provide your Senior Living Care Information to Participating Communities. The Participating Communities may contact you directly regarding their services. APFM does not endorse or recommend any provider. It is your sole responsibility to select the appropriate care for yourself or your loved one. We work with both you and the Participating Communities in your search. We do not permit our Advisors to have an ownership interest in Participating Communities.
II. How We Are Paid. We do not charge you any fee – we are paid by the Participating Communities. Some Participating Communities pay us a percentage of the first month's standard rate for the rent and care services you select. We invoice these fees after the senior moves in.
III. When We Tour. APFM tours certain Participating Communities in Washington (typically more in metropolitan areas than in rural areas.) During the 12 month period prior to December 31, 2017, we toured 86.2% of Participating Communities with capacity for 20 or more residents.

Even if the woman tests negative before leaving the facility, she could become positive the next day or the day after.
She was sick for 3 weeks, and shed the virus for about 3 1/2 months.
I’d definitely be wary.
Who wants to get Covid and bring it home? No one would want to be exposed. Settle this right now before accepting the job.
Speak to the agency about protecting their employees. They have a responsibility to make sure they are sending you into a safe environment.
as you start today (is that right?), your kinda stuck on today’s gearing up.
But use today to look careful in the home and hen do a list of items they need to have for you both to have at the lady’s home and another set / box that you have so that you can come in with fresh disposal mask, gloves, face shield. For start of your shift day after next. Also request Case of mini bottled waters, paper straws, Lysol or Wet Ones in all bathrooms and the ladys bedroom. Go online to Target & Walmart for pricing on this and present it to them if need be.
Does your city do free Covid testing? If do I’d get one done this week so you have a baseline on your being + or -.
You might want to have a laundry basket and change of clothing next to it so that you strip and donn a fresh set of clothing for entering your home. That laundry done on hot every day or sits in garage till laundry day that you do (not your hubs or your mom).
Also kinda keep track of how busy this home is..... like if the lady has all sorts of visitors and if they do PPE and social distancing. If lady is negative, it’s not her I’d be worried about but her family & friends coming in, stopping by to visit, socialize, chat & use the bathroom.
Imo if the lady’s family balk at any of this and it’s visiting with no masks etc, I’d resign from the job. You & your own household are all higher risk population and 1 of y’all will have a health issue that Covid sensitive as face it as we age we all get something....... You can find another position that has a mutual approach / collective responsibility to being Covid safe. Good luck.
