§ 3270.153. Facility persons with symptoms of disease.
A facility person with symptoms of a communicable disease or infection that can be transmitted directly or indirectly and which may threaten the health of children in care shall be excluded from attendance until the facility operator receives notification from a physician or CRNP that the person is no longer considered a threat to the health of others. The notification shall be retained in the facility person’s file. Exclusion from the facility is required for diseases and conditions specified in 28 Pa.
