ODP Announcement 20-040 provides recommendations for all providers to follow during the COVID-19 emergency. The checklist titled Residential Provider Checklist for Confirmed Cases of COVID-19 was designed to support residential habilitation and Lifesharing providers for initial response to confirmed cases following the recommended guidelines. These guidelines were formed in accordance with Pennsylvania’s Department of Health (DOH) and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). ODP may update this checklist as new guidance becomes available from DOH and the CDC.

Administrative Entities will continue to engage and support providers during the COVID-19 response, including the review of these recommended guidelines with providers in the event of a confirmed case.

For questions regarding the checklist, please contact your ODP regional office.
