Child care providers will be able to order up to a one-month supply of PPE, including masks for children and adults, gloves, hand sanitizer, and other supplies.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"523\" height=\"639\" src=\"https:\/\/framinghamsource.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/insurance.house_.ad_.source.2020.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-21433\" srcset=\"https:\/\/framinghamsource.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/insurance.house_.ad_.source.2020.png 523w, https:\/\/framinghamsource.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/insurance.house_.ad_.source.2020-246x300.png 246w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 523px) 100vw, 523px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>With dedicated testing locations and test results provided within 48 hours, the new testing initiative is an effort to prevent sudden temporary closures of child care programs due to virus exposure. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The testing sites \u2013 located in Athol, Braintree, Billerica, Dalton, Franklin, Plymouth, Sturbridge and Westfield \u2013 will allow child care programs to continue providing care when symptomatic individuals test negative and reopen quicker after potential exposures. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The sites were chosen in collaboration with the Department of Public Health (DPH) and the COVID-19 Response Command Center based on distance from a current state-sponsored Stop the Spread testing location and concentration of child care providers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Anyone affiliated with a child care program who is symptomatic, identified as a close contact or has concerns about exposure, including all staff and their household members as well as children in care and their families, will be eligible for testing at no cost. Each site will have capacity to test approximately 400 people a day.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>[broadstreet zone=&#8221;59946&#8243;]<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Tests will be conducted by medical personnel using a simple anterior nasal swab and will be processed by a CLIA-certified laboratory with results available to individuals via a portal in 48 hours or less.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Those receiving a test will need the EEC provider number of the child care program to verify their eligibility. No appointment is necessary, but pre-registration is highly encouraged.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As required by state law, the lab will report results to the state\u2019s Department of Public Health. Individuals will be responsible for reporting to their child care provider or employer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>[broadstreet zone=&#8221;59948&#8243;]<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Members of the Massachusetts Early Childhood Funder Collaborative and BayCoast Bank have committed $450,000 to support the initial eight-week pilot, which will provide time to evaluate the efficacy of the testing program and determine next steps. The Massachusetts Early Childhood Funder Collaborative is&nbsp;comprised of individuals and foundations supporting the early childhood sector in the Commonwealth, sharing information and best practices in early childhood philanthropy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Currently, there are 2,429 center-based programs open and 4,373 family child care homes serving children and their families, which represents approximately 82 percent of pre-COVID child care capacity level.
