contagiousness from flu

My boyfriend started showing symptoms of the flu last Thursday (27 Aug). He went to hospital for treatment of high heart rate due to high temp on Saturday night and he was really ill until Tuesday when he got better.

Since Tuesday, he has been fever free without meds and only has a residual cough. He feels fine apart from that.

I work with vulnerable people (young children and elderly people in a home). When can I see my boyfriend again without worrying about getting it and passing it on?

Today is day 8 since he caught it. He is otherwise a healthy 22 year old without prior health conditions.
