MDHHS LTC Respiratory Protection Program (SNF/AL)

The Michigan Department of Health and Human Services (MDHHS) is continuing to provide free qualitative fit testing apparatus kits and Michigan Occupational Safety and Health Administration (MIOSHA) training resources to ensure respiratory protection standards are met throughout the state. Qualifying facilities include skilled nursing facilities, adult foster care, homes for the aged, and assisted living communities.

To request these free respiratory fit testing kits, the facility’s Infection Preventionist (or other designated facility employee) should complete this linked order form. Respiratory fit testing kit orders will be placed at the end of each month. After completion and submission of an order form, kits will be shipped using the information provided. Following the kit shipment, MDHHS will reach out to offer training resources provided by MIOSHA that may be useful in developing a respiratory protection program. If you have any questions about this program or run into any issues with the form, please email MDHHS at [email protected].
