COVID-19 Precautions

Update - Youth Home will continue following CDC guidelines for health care facilities which includes, masks, temperature checks, and physical distancing. Our clinical team continues to work closely with the Arkansas Department of Health while monitoring COVID-19 infection rates.

At Youth Home, Inc. the health and safety of our residents and team members is of the utmost importance and in an effort to minimize the impact of the virus we will be taking extra precautions. Any visitor to our campus (parents, guardians, caseworkers, siblings, contractors, etc.) will be screened before being allowed to enter our facility. This screening is the recommendation for long term care facilities.

You will be asked the following questions upon arrival:

1. Are you having flu-like symptoms such as fever, cough or shortness of breath?
2. In the last 14 days have you traveled to any areas that have active cases? Where?
3. Have you been in close contact with someone confirmed of or is being evaluated for COVID-19?

Please note that there may be periods of time where visitations to campus are restricted due to COVID.

The following precautions have been taken to help minimize the spread of COVID-19:

• Stand-alone air purifiers were purchased for our outpatient clinic, school based locations, Siebert school, and our Youth Home common areas and offices
• Renovations were made within our Siebert school to accommodate a special quarantine space on campus
• In-duct UV air purifiers installed on all air handlers on campus including all houses, school, and administration building
• Electrostatic sanitizing guns and a sanitizing backpack were purchased for use throughout campus and our outpatient clinic
• Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) and sanitizing materials were stockpiled to ensure a continuous supply of needed and vital items
