Infection Control Practices for Clients, Volunteers and Staff

To help prevent the spread of infection and protect the health of our clients, volunteers and staff - as well as the wider community - please follow these infection control practices:

• Wash your hands often. Use soap and water for at least 20 seconds.  Handwashing guidelines are posted in the DRC office and restrooms.

• Avoid touching your face, especially with unwashed hands.

• Avoid people who are sick. Steer clear of illnesses if at all possible.

• Cover your coughs and sneezes and dispose of tissues in a waste bin.

• Clean things. Disinfect objects and surfaces often. Conciliators and mediators, avail yourselves of the resources at-hand when starting a shift or a session.

• Stay home if you're sick.

• Stay informed. Follow and share trusted sources of accurate public health information:
