COVID19: safety at the youth centre

---

 We have been working with the local health unit and following Provincial guidelines to develop standards and procedures to keep you safe 

Carleton Place & District Youth Centre is a social service and is identified as such by the local health unit. Therefor we are not required to request proof of vaccination for anyone 12+ 

Any person accessing the facility must complete an active screening assessment or perform an online COVID-19 self-assessment or School/ChildCare Screening before arriving or at the entrance.  You can send results to us by screen capture or send us the results via facebook or email to:  
cpdyc.covid19assessments@gmail.com  

You can even do this on your phone before arriving! Ultimately we have to see that it was done. 

 Anyone visiting the facility, even if stopping by, will be asked to sign in and provide a means of contact. We will make sure your contact info is up to date on your membership form.

 Any person with one or more symptoms must not enter the facility, should self-isolate and consider getting tested at a local assessment centre. Visitors are monitored while attending and will be denied access, or removed from the program setting to be picked up, should they show any symptom. Parents/Guardians will be called to come pick up child(ren) from our isolation area.

Masks must be worn properly at all times except when visitors are sitting down to eat, or when outside and distanced.  Three Layer Masks are available should anyone need one. Hand sanitizer is provided throughout the centre and is brought outside if doing activities. Participants are asked to frequently wash their hands or use sanitizer.  Physical distancing is required for anyone who is not in your household, both inside and outside of the Youth Centre.  

Gathering limits are in effect, vary depending on activity, and are specified on the monthly activity calendar.

Frequently touched items and areas such as washrooms, chairs, tables, games, are cleaned and disinfected throughout the day. Shared sports equipment such as basketballs and hockey sticks are cleaned and disinfected immediately after use. All activities, workshops, and programs have been modified to fit the Local Health Unit and Provincial COVID19 Safety Standards!
