COVID Protocols
It is important to note that, although all measures dictated by Ottawa Public Health will be taken to ensure participation in O-YA programs is as safe as possible, staff, volunteers and participants will still be at risk for exposure to COVID-19 while at O-YA. All of O-YA’s programs will have a screening process to help detect infections when there are symptoms. However, this screening process cannot detect infected participants, volunteers or staff who are asymptomatic at the time of screening.
If participants display one or more of the following symptoms, they will be isolated and parent / guardians will be contacted for immediate pick up:
◦ Fever (37.8 degreed Celsius or higher)
◦ Chills
◦ Cough that’s new or worsening (continuous, more than usual)
◦ Barking cough
◦ Shortness of breath (out of breath, unable to breath deeply)
◦ Sore throat
◦ Difficulty swallowing
◦ Running, stuffy or congested nose (not related to allergies or other known causes)
◦ Lost sense of taste or smell
◦ Pint eye
◦ Headache that’s unusual or long lasting
◦ Digestive issues (nausea / vomiting, diarrhea, stomach pain)
◦ Muscle aches
◦ Extreme tiredness that is unusual
◦ Falling down often
◦ Young participant: sluggishness or lack of appetite
Testing for COVID-19
◦ Symptomatic participants will be referred for testing
◦ Symptomatic participants should self-isolate while waiting for test results
◦ Close contacts of participants over 48 hours prior to when symptoms appeared should be monitored for symptoms
◦ If a staff or participant chooses not to be tested, they must stay home and not return to program until they can pass the daily Self Assessment
◦ If O-YA must close due to COVID-19, determining this closure and re-opening will be done in consultation with Ottawa Public Health.
COVID-19 Test Results
Negative Test: Must be excluded from program until 24 hours after symptom resolution without fever-reducing medication or 48 hours after resolution of vomiting or diarrhea.
Positive Test: Ottawa Public Health will be notified of any positive COVID-19 test results and will assist with next steps.
Close Contact of Probably COVID-19 Case
Participants who have been identified as a close contact of a confirmed or probably COVID-19 case should self-isolate and not attend program. If the individual is no longer in contact with the confirmed or probably case, they can discontinue the self-isolation after 14 days from the last exposure if there are no symptoms of COVID-19. If the individual remains in contact with the probably or suspected case, they can discontinue self-isolation after 14 days from the day they were advised to isolate and provided they have not developed any symptoms of COVID-19.
Close contact means:
Living in the same home while that person was not self-isolating and infectious Being less than 2 metres away in the same room or area from another person or unprotected contact for more than 15 minutes.
