Sick Policy
Southborough Youth and Family Services follows a sick policy for our staff, program participants, and clients. If you are sick with a virus, cold, stomach bug, flu, or any other illness, please reschedule your appointments and/or not attend programs you are registered for. We ask that you be symptom-free for a minimum of 24 hours before rescheduling an appointment or returning for an ongoing program. Residents who come to appointments or programs exhibiting cold, stomach bug, or flu-like symptoms will be asked to leave and our staff will follow up to reschedule any appointments. Because of the Coronavirus we are currently waiving our 24-hour cancellation policy and ask for your flexibility and understanding if we need to cancel a service or program on short notice in order to keep everyone healthy and safe.
