Dear CSP member,

The Canadian Ski Patrol is monitoring ongoing issues with the COVID-19 pandemic. As noted in the CSP Advanced First Aid Manual – Change No. 2 notice, the CSP recommends patrollers get the seasonal influenza and the COVID-19 vaccine as it is available.

Regardless of immunization status, patrollers are encouraged to continue following public health guidelines for physical distancing, hand washing hygiene, and wearing masks. The CSP is monitoring for further updates from the Public Health Agency of Canada as well as recommendations from provincial and territorial health authorities.

All COVID-19 guidelines will remain in place for non-skiing events, classroom and patrolling further until further notice.

 

Regards,

 

Linda Andrews,

Vice-President – Training and Development
