COVID-19 & Illness
Clinic Policies

NAPA Center is dedicated to providing direct center-based therapy services while ensuring the safety of our employees, patients, and their families. We have implemented the policies and procedures below and will be observing all state and local requirements.

Masking Requirements

We’ve transitioned our masking policy by clinic, in accordance with the latest local regulations and guidelines from health authorities.

Current Masking Requirements by Clinic

• Los Angeles – Masks optional
• Boston – Masks optional
• Austin – Masks optional
• Denver – Masks optional
• Chicago – Masks optional

If masks are no longer a requirement of the clinic you are attending but you would prefer them to be worn during your child’s treatment, our therapists will be happy to wear them, so please let them know.

Symptoms
We ask you to remain home if you or any member of your household show symptoms of coronavirus

Positive Test Result
If you, your child, or anybody in your household tests positive for COVID-19, follow the CDC guidelines and consult the guidance of a healthcare physician. If you have been at NAPA within 48 hours of the positive test or symptom onset, please contact a NAPA staff member immediately. If you have no symptoms or your symptoms are resolving and you have not had a fever for 24 hours without the use of fever-reducing medication, you may return to NAPA after 5 days but must wear a mask.
