AT-HOME COVID-19 TEST KITS AVAILABLE FOR CHID CARE PROVIDERS
YMCA Childcare Resource Service (CRS) has received a limited supply of COVID-19 at-home antigen tests. If you are interested in test kits for your program, complete the survey below. At this time, there are not enough test kits to serve the entire child care community. By completing the survey we will gather information on the need for our community and will be able to start distributing test kits.
Licensed centers, license-exempt centers, licensed family child care homes, and license-exempt home-based caregivers that are currently open and operating are eligible to request test kits for the children in their program. The test kits are to be administered by the parents/guardians of the children.
If you are a center, the site director should complete this survey for their site. As test kits become available, they will be mailed directly to programs that have requested them.
YMCA Childcare Resource Service (CRS, por sus siglas en inglés) ha recibido algunas pruebas caseras de antígenos del COVID-19. Si está interesado en recibir pruebas caseras para su programa, complete la encuesta a continuación. En este momento, no hay suficientes pruebas caseras para atender a toda la comunidad de cuidado infantil. Al completar la encuesta, recopilaremos información sobre la necesidad de nuestra comunidad y podremos comenzar a distribuir las pruebas caseras.
Los centros de guardería con licencia, centros de guardería exentos de licencia, programas de cuidado infantil en el hogar con licencia, y los proveedores en el hogar exentos de licencia que actualmente están abiertos y trabajando son elegibles para solicitar las pruebas caseras para los niños en su programa. Las pruebas caseras deben ser administradas por los padres/tutores de los niños.
Si usted trabaja en un centro de guardería, el director del centro debe completar esta encuesta para su instalación. A medida que las pruebas caseras sean disponibles, se enviarán por correo directamente a los programas que las hayan solicitado.
