ALFs, other congregate living settings (eg, NHs, residential care facilities for older adults, continuing care retirement communities), and home healthcare agencies (eg, Visiting Nurse Association) must be included as priorities when estimating what is needed for the US coordinated response to COVID-19. For older adults residing in ALFs and other congregate living settings, screening for COVID-19 will be particularly important for protecting the health and safety of their communities. This includes the ability to isolate or cohort the resident(s) separately from the rest of the community and provide dedicated staff to meet increased care needs for people with COVID-19.	./cache/cord-327595-00fxzyhq.txt	./txt/cord-327595-00fxzyhq.txt
