The Strategic Partners Program in the Healthcare-Associated Infections and Antimicrobial Resistance (HAIAR) section of the Washington State Department of Health (DOH) is pleased to announce the release of three updated educational videos to help visitors to long-term care (LTC) settings learn about basic infection control measures for preventing COVID-19, flu, and other infectious diseases.

The LTC Visitation Guidance video describes basic infection prevention practices, while the LTC Isolation Precautions Guidance video covers the proper use of personal protective equipment when visiting someone who is in quarantine. The Adult Family Home Visitation video provides basic visitation guidance specific to adult family home settings.
