Marie,
Your thinking is solid, and I agree that there would be challenges to managing covid cases with your current setup. A great start would be to free up that other bedroom and not have it used as staff quarters. Some other considerations might be temporary housing right next to the health center, such as a wall tent with a bunk or cot, or a camper or travel trailer. Your state regulations might also have guidance for what to do with a covid positive camper or staff, and indicate that you need isolation for that person. The state guidance might provide some authority behind your conversations with the leadership staff.
Amanda has some great suggestions for isolating a symptomatic or suspected covid person, but having a staff member on a porch or within ear shot. Baby monitors also work well in some situations.
Now is a good time to think through all of the scenarios, not in the middle of summer when someone is symptomatic!
Best,
Mary
