Tips for Safer Interactions
First, we hope you and your families, friends, and co-workers are doing
well in physical and mental health, as well as financially. This virus
event is considered a 'pandemic outbreak' (new strain, and global).
These terms sound alarming – and thus begins physical, mental, and
emotional distress in many.

Be sure and check with your state and local requirements, and consult
legal advice as may be necessary. The following is not legal advice.

We suggest having a HIPAA and state health department compliant
form for all personal interactions with clients and the public (witnesses, etc.). In addition to compliance, there are two
additional considerations: 1) liability insurance may require compliance and additional guidelines; and 2) if there is any
exposure this will assist with state and CDC contact tracing programs. Any compliance forms should be signed and dated
by all parties. These forms should be copied to the case file, and a compliance folder for the agency.
