Health care workers who do not work for Alberta Health Services and are experiencing symptoms of respiratory illness should follow the Guidance for Management of Symptomatic Healthcare Workers (PDF, 99 KB).
Alberta Health Services employees with symptoms of respiratory illness should follow the Attending Work Directive.Anyone who is feeling unwell, regardless of whether they have tested positive for a respiratory virus or not, are advised to avoid visiting acute care or continuing care settings except when necessary (for example, to receive emergency care).It is also recommended that you wear a mask when you are around others in indoor settings for a total of 10 days from when your symptoms started.If you have respiratory virus symptoms or test positive for any respiratory illness you should stay home until your symptoms have improved, you feel well enough to resume normal activities, and you are free of fever for 24 hours without the use of fever-reducing medication.Isolation helps prevent the spread by reducing the number of people you could infect by staying home and avoiding others.
