Requirement for each ice session
ALL participants including parents, players, goalies, coaches, and officials must review the Covid-19 Alberta Daily Health Checklist prior to any ice session. https://www.spmha.net/dailyhealthchecklist
If they answer YES to any of these questions, they are not permitted in the facility or to attend the ice session and SPMHA is directing you to AHS’ online COVID-19 Self-Assessment Tool (https://myhealth.alberta.ca/Journey/COVID-19/Pages/COVID-Self-Assessment.aspx) for assessment, and potentially, for legally required next steps. If answering YES to any COVID Daily Checklist question, the parent of an SPMHA player is required to let their player’s Division Director know, both when the parent answers YES to the question & again when the parent feels they have followed AHS’ expectations for their child no longer needing to self-isolate.
While SPMHA does not provide healthcare advice, AHS stipulates that if you answer YES to any COVID Daily Checklist question and are not severely ill “You are recommended to be tested for COVID-19. You are legally required to self-isolate. If you DO NOT get tested – you must isolate for 10 days from the onset of symptoms AND until symptoms have resolved (whichever is latest). Individuals who are tested, MUST isolate pending their results and should visit ahs.ca/results for further information regarding the next steps they must take following their test results.” (https://myhealth.alberta.ca/Journey/COVID-19/Pages/COVID-Self-Assessment.aspx)
