From Sonia Jaworski MSN, RN, NCSN, Nurse Administrator with the Amherst-Pelham Regional School District — With the increasing number of Covid cases reported in the news, I wanted to share the current recommendations for Covid/respiratory illnesses. You are able to return to normal activities if you have been fever free for 24 hours without taking any fever reducing medication and your symptoms are improving. It is encouraged that people wear a mask if they are safely able to do so for the following 5 days after returning to normal activities. We are no longer conducting contact tracing. Masks are available in the nurse’s office.

Remember, taking your own personal precautions like washing your hands and covering your coughs and sneezes will help prevent the spread of illness. Call (413) 362-1743 for more information.
