The California Department of Social Services (CDSS) has issued a new Provider Information Notice (PIN) requiring all Adult and Senior Care (ASC) facilities to submit a COVID-19 Mitigation Plan Report by January 24, 2021. This report must include components such as screening, testing, quarantine/isolation/cohorting, infection control lead person, personal protective equipment (PPE), plans for staffing shortages, communication, and memory care. Facilities must submit their completed Mitigation Plan Report to CCLDFacilityCovidPlan@dss.ca.gov. Failure to develop or submit the report may result in violations of licensing requirements and regulations. Additionally, failure to follow the Mitigation Plan Report may be considered harmful to the health, welfare, and safety of persons in care. CDSS has provided training resources and a template for the COVID-19 Mitigation Plan Report to assist facilities in meeting these requirements.
