Phases
The Long-Term Care Facility Reopening Phases per Executive Directive No. 20-026:
https://nj.gov/health/legal/covid19/8-20_ExecutiveDirectiveNo20-026_LTCResumption_of_Svcs.pdf
Phase 0: Any facility with an active outbreak of COVID-19, as defined by the Communicable Disease Service (CDS), per the COVID-19 Communicable Disease Manual Chapter, any facility that cannot attest to criteria to advance phases, and all facilities if New Jersey is in maximum restrictions per the Road Back to Recovery.
Phase 1: Facilities that never had an outbreak or that concluded an outbreak per section (II)(5), and 14 days have passed since NJ moved to Stage 1 (May 2, 2020) of the Road Back to Recovery and the facility has submitted all the attestations required in this Directive.
Phase 2: Facilities that never had an outbreak or that concluded an outbreak per section (II)(5), and 14 days have passed since NJ moved to Stage 2 (June 15, 2020) of the Road Back to Recovery and the facility has submitted all the attestations required in this Directive.
Phase 3: Facilities that never had an outbreak or that concluded an outbreak per section (II)(5), and 14 days have passed since New Jersey moved to Stage 3 of the Road Back to Recovery, and the facility has submitted all the attestations required in this Directive.
(ll)(5)
A facility with a COVID-19 outbreak will remain in Phase 0 (maximum restrictions) until their outbreak of COVID-19 has concluded. The detection of a NEW COVID-19 outbreak returns the facility to Phase 0 regardless of the facility’s current Phase. In order to leave phase 0, facilities must re-submit an attestation upon conclusion.
Outbreaks are considered concluded when there are no symptomatic/asymptomatic probable or confirmed COVID-19 cases among employees or residents after 28 days have passed since the last case’s onset date or specimen collection date (whichever is later), as defined and updated per the COVID-19 Communicable Disease Manual Chapter.
