Updated January 13, 2022

The safety of our team and clients are paramount to us. The goal of this page is to outline the minimum standards for safety that artverb* staff and clients must follow during the COVID-19 crises. Because of the evolving nature of this pandemic, this document may be updated to reflect the most current recommendations from municipal, provincial and federal sources. Nothing in this document is meant to supersede or contradict official recommendations issued through health agencies or other government entities.

  • Whenever possible maintain a distance of 6 feet from others
  • Masks and gloves and hand sanitizer are being made available by artverb* however, any individual can choose to bring and use the own face coverings. Reusable masks will need to be maintained by the user with frequent washing and disinfecting.

  • artverb* staff must wear proper PPE while working with a client
  • Clients are required to wear masks when interacting with artverb* staff.
  • Limit unnecessary interaction with clients.
  • If anyone in the client residence is not feeling well on the day of scheduled services, we ask the client to contact the artverb* office to reschedule.
  • artverb* staff and clients will not share the use of pens to fill out any paperwork and sign the BOL. Each person will use their own.
  • Implement indirect contact BOL procedures where possible. This means not passing the BOL directly from person to person, and maintaining a distance of 6 feet at all times.
  • Additional packing that may be required should be done in the truck if possible, or back at warehouse.
