State and State Agency Plans and Guidelines

CHA offers these links to state and federal agency pandemic plans as a resource bank for those responsible for preparing their facilities. CHA does not endorse or recommend any one plan over another. CHA urges Catholic systems to continue developing their guidelines and recommendations in accordance with the Ethical and Religious Directives of Catholic Health Care Services, even as they learn from these policies.
