COVID-19 Safety & Protocols
Prioritizing Health, Safety, and Peace of Mind
At Sweet Tea Home Care™, the well-being of our clients, caregivers, and families is our highest priority. We are committed to delivering compassionate, high-quality care while taking every precaution to keep everyone safe—especially in the ongoing presence of COVID-19.
Our protocols are informed by guidance from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) and the Alabama Department of Public Health, with added measures designed to provide peace of mind and enhanced protection for those who request it.
๐ Safety Measures for In-Home Care
We’ve implemented thoughtful protocols to protect your loved ones and ensure the highest standards of cleanliness and care:
๐ท Mask Use (Premium Service)
Caregiver masking is available upon request as part of our Premium Service Package. Please inquire directly if you or your loved one would prefer masked care.
๐งผ Enhanced Hand Hygiene
Caregivers wash and sanitize hands thoroughly upon entering the home and throughout the visit—especially before and after personal contact, meal prep, or cleaning.
๐งด Sanitation Protocols
High-touch surfaces and frequently used equipment (like walkers or handrails) are disinfected regularly to maintain a clean and safe environment.
๐งช Exposure Response
Any caregiver exposed to COVID-19 or experiencing illness is promptly removed from the schedule and must meet clearance protocols before returning to service.
๐ฉโ๏ธ Vaccination & Ongoing Training
-
All caregivers are strongly encouraged to be fully vaccinated, including boosters.
-
Our team receives ongoing training in infection prevention, sanitation best practices, and COVID-related safety protocols.
๐ฌ Communication and Transparency
We believe in keeping families informed. If there’s ever a concern or potential exposure, you’ll be notified immediately and offered safe, alternative care options.

We understand that every family’s comfort level is different. If you have questions or would like to request specific safety measures, please reach out—we’re happy to accommodate where possible.
