Free Fit Testing Services for NYC ACF and Nursing Home Providers

LeadingAge NY adult care facility (ACF) and nursing home members are encouraged to consider participating in a free Respiratory Protection Programs (RPPs) for Long Term Care Facilities program being offered by the NYC Department of Health and Mental Hygiene (DOHMH). The program offers free mobile fit testing services through a vendor, TRC Environmental Corporation. LeadingAge NY had recommended this initiative based on member feedback, but it has not been widely utilized to date.

See this brochure for a complete overview of activities planned in the program, as well as necessary documents containing program guidelines. More information about the program and NYC DOHMH contacts can be found here.
