New DOH Policy

By Alerts, Policy and Guideline Updates

Greetings Everyone,

Today, another policy statement was published and is located both in this email and on the DOH website. This policy was created to outline the changes that were made to the new education regulations. Many of you have asked me “what has changed” and since it was such a large change, it has been difficult to outline all of those. So, like the new procedures that have been implemented, such as the “protocol change log”, the DOH has released a “education change log”. Please see either the attached, or it is under the policy page on the DOH as policy 24-08. This makes 3 new policies that have come out over the last 2 days.
