We would like to remind everyone not to congregate in nursing stations, break rooms, or other communal areas. It is imperative that you adhere to physical distancing guidelines and remain masked at all times. This is true even if you have received the vaccine. Please also ensure you are adhering to all other safety practices, such as strict hand hygiene.
If you have no symptoms of COVID-19, you should continue to report to work. If you develop symptoms of COVID-19, do not come to work, immediately isolate yourself at home, and contact your Primary Care Provider (if no known work exposure) OR Occupational Medicine (if known work exposure) to arrange for COVID-19 testing. Do not return to work until you meet all the appropriate criteria in our return to work algorithms posted on the one portal.
The symptoms of COVID-19 commonly include fever, chills, and cough. Symptoms may also include difficulty breathing, fatigue, muscle aches, new loss of taste or smell, sore throat, runny nose, nausea, vomiting, or diarrhea. Symptoms can develop within two to 14 days after exposure (typically around five days for most people). Some people who test positive may not develop any symptoms. Additional information is available on the CDC website.
