Faith Cafe infection Control measures

Faith Cafe Cooks and Volunteer Coordinators,

Below are some materials to read and share with your Faith Cafe volunteers - and everyone you know on controlling the spread of flu and norovirus. The Washington County Health Department is gearing up for a horrendous flu season. Let's do our part to not spread any infection to our already immuno-compromised guests.

Please note no volunteer should serve at Faith Cafe until 72 hours after flu symptoms end. Coordinators, you may want to have a list of "on call" volunteers to fill in if you hear from a last-minute sick person.
