Due to the continued spread of the highly contagious delta variant, Alluma will again require all staff and clients, regardless of COVID-19 vaccination status, to wear masks in all Alluma facilities and during all indoor face-to-face services, effective Monday, August 16.
“Our region has seen increases in COVID cases, and even those who are vaccinated can transmit the virus. Our Risk, Safety, and Compliance Committee elected to follow health care best practices to protect the safety of clients, visitors, and staff,” said Joan Tronson, Chief Human Resources Officer and Compliance Manager for Alluma.
Alluma’s decision aligns with recommendations from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) and the Minnesota Department of Health. Children under age two and people with certain health conditions who may have difficulty wearing a mask or face covering safely are not required to wear masks.
