Inclusa continues to follow the guidance of the federal Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) and the Wisconsin Department of Health Services (DHS), alongside local public health agencies across Wisconsin. Providers licensed by the State of Wisconsin should continue to watch for operations guidance in relation to COVID-19 from the Wisconsin Department of Health Services (DHS) Division of Quality Assurance (DQA).

The DHS and CDC websites are updated regularly as circumstances are changing and evolving. Also be sure to connect with your local health department, the first line of contact for situations that impact your community’s health.

In addition, the following are the most recent memos issued by DHS:

• Department of Health Services (DHS) | REVISED Recommendations for Long-Term Care and Assisted Living Facilities
• Department of Health Services (DHS) | AFH Guidelines – Letter
• Department of Health Services (DHS) | Adult Day Services Guidelines – Letter

The direct support workforce crisis is having a major impact on provider agencies across the country. To develop a deeper sense of what providers are experiencing and how they’re responding, APSE is assisting ANCOR in collecting data about the workforce shortage and the repercussions on the services you provide.
