Given the rise in Coronavirus infections in Colorado, the State of Colorado has issued a recommendation that all HCBS employees (including Alpine Homecare employees) submit to free, weekly COVID-19 testing, ideally on the same day each week in order to identify and prevent the spread of COVID-19.

Alpine supports these recommendations and we are excited to have this additional safeguard as part of our plan to protect our staff and clients. While we cannot at this time require any of our staff to get weekly testing, we strongly recommend it and encourage everyone to participate. The testing is free, prioritized for home care employees and results can be obtained online.

Please see below info for testing sites and please do not hesitate to contact Alpine's office at 303 309 6202 in case of any questions and see the State's letter attached below.
