In an effort to increase access to Covid19 testing, especially on the Quechan reservation, the Quechan Office of Emergency Management is distributing free at-home test kits. The no cost testing kits are available by request for curbside pickup or delivery. Please contact Jillian Attaway at (928)587-5524 or email at emergencyadminassist@quechantribe.com to make arrangements.
As testing kits are limited, they will be offered as supplies last. Please continue to check the website at www.quechantribe.com for more information if and when more kits become available.
If you feel you have been exposed, have received a positive test, or are exhibiting symptoms, the Office of Emergency Management asks membership to follow up with their primary care provider for further treatment and evaluation.
As always, the Quechan Tribe continues to encourage getting vaccinated, boosted, maintain good hygiene habits, physically distance, wear a mask, and stay home if you feel ill.
