In addition to reopening some of its clinical operations, Kaiser Permanente has released guidance on bringing back employees to the workplace, according to an article on the Fierce Healthcare website.

Some recommendations include:

  • Reconfigure office space to allow at least two arms’ length of space between any workstations.
  • Limit any meeting or gathering to 10 people or less.
  • Increase any ventilation or air circulation and work to frequently disinfect touched surfaces like doorknobs or workstations.
