CDPHE Residential Strike Team Call

In order to reduce the spread of illness and the number of deaths in residential care settings, the state launched a Residential Care Strike Team in late April 2020. The Residential Care Strike Team is composed of representatives of the Governor’s office and state agencies that play a role in regulating and supporting residential care facilities: The Department of Public Health and Environment (CDPHE), Human Services (DHS), Health Care Policy and Financing (HCPF), Department of Public Safety and Regulatory Agencies (DORA). The goal of the Residential Care Strike Team is to mitigate the spread of COVID-19 in all high-density environments serving older adults and people with disabilities. The Strike Team is working to achieve this goal through five key strategies:

  • Proactive and reactive monitoring and testing
  • Infection control enforcement and education
  • Providing personal protective equipment (PPE)
  • Ensuring separation and isolation of residents and workers with COVID-19
  • Helping stabilize staffing at facilities

The call is biweekly, with the next call taking place Wednesday, July 14, 2021 from 12 PM – 1 PM

Call-in information will be sent out to CHCA members as well as posted here. Slides will be posted below each meeting date.
