Care Indeed Nurses Offer COVID-19 Testing at Educational Sites | Workplace Solutions

Care Indeed, the Bay Area’s leader in Home Health Care solutions, is pleased to announce a COVID-19 testing initiative at educational sites throughout the area. Care Indeed’s team of licensed, registered, experienced nurses are ready to conveniently and efficiently administer either PCR or Rapid Antigen tests, the COVID vaccine, or other health services at your educational location.

What Is Care Indeed’s Workplace Solutions COVID-19 Testing Initiative?

Throughout the pandemic, Care Indeed has played an active role in providing healthcare services to seniors, clients, and our Bay Area communities. Although many residents are in the process of being vaccinated against COVID-19, educational sites must rely on a variety of procedures to mitigate risks and keep their staff and students safe and healthy.

Frequent COVID-19 testing is one of the best ways to increase confidence and mitigate risks. Our nurses make testing efficient, safe, and an easy way to quickly confirm that your team and staff are free from active COVID-19 infections.

Clients can select the frequency and the type of COVID-19 testing. Our Workplace Solutions team will handle the rest.

What Types of COVID-19 Testing Are Available?

Our nurses offer two types of COVID tests at your place of business, PCR testing or Rapid Antigen Testing. Both tests offer certain advantages depending upon needs and time constraints.

Covid-19 PCR Tests

PCR Tests are considered the gold standard of COVID testing. These tests are highly accurate. One of our nurses administers the test by using a swab to take a sample from the patient’s mouth, nose, or nasopharyngeal area.

PCR test samples must be sent to a lab for analysis. Test results are usually available within 24 to 48 hours.

COVID-19 Rapid Antigen Tests

COVID-19 Rapid Antigen Tests work by detecting the presence of SARS-CoV-2 antigens in the body. SARS-CoV-2 antigens are present in the coronavirus that causes COVID-19.

Rapid Antigen Tests are very popular when quick results are needed. One of our nurses will take a sample of nasal secretions using a nasopharyngeal swab. The results of the test should be ready in approximately 30 minutes.

Rapid Antigen tests are preferred when time is limited and quick results are needed to ensure the safety of your team, staff, and everyone they interact with.

Other Educational Site Services Care Indeed Offers

Our professional nurses provide other services in addition to COVID-19 testing. We recommend everyone eligible be vaccinated against COVID-19. Our nurses can administer the COVID vaccine.

Care Indeed Workplace Solutions nurses are also available to give Flu shots and general immunizations. For educational sites needing health and wellness checkups, our nurses conduct health assessments and wellness checks to support you in your efforts to keep your staff healthy.

Educational Sites and Workplaces Best Practices

Frequent COVID-19 testing is key to mitigating risks and keeping your educational site open. What other steps can be taken to lower the risk of exposure to your team and keep parents and students feeling confident?

In addition to frequent testing, all eligible Bay Area residents should follow protocols and be vaccinated for COVID-19. Continue to wash hands with warm, soapy water, or use hand sanitizer if water is not available.

Wearing a mask when appropriate and following physical distancing recommendations continue to be important risk-reduction measures. Care Indeed encourages everyone to make getting enough rest a priority. Reducing unnecessary stress keeps the immune system functioning well. A diet high in fresh fruits, vegetables, and other healthy foods will help strengthen the immune system.

Continuing to implement proactive, preventative measures helps reduce the likelihood of getting or spreading COVID-19. Care Indeed nurses offer convenient, professional COVID-19 testing support at education sites to help keep schools open and classrooms safe.
