COVID-19 Self-Monitoring Required for All Workforce Members

UConn Health’s policy requires those who work at UConn Health to continuously self-monitor for COVID-19 symptoms and exposures, and that they follow UConn Health guidelines if they test positive for COVID-19, experience a high-risk COVID-19 exposure, or have new or worsening COVID-19 symptoms.

This policy applies to all workforce members including all UConn Health employees, volunteers, medical staff, trainees, contract workers, and any individual receiving a UConn Health-issued badge.

Workforce members who have a high-risk exposure, have new or worsening COVID-19 symptoms, or test positive for COVID-19 should not enter our facilities, and should call the COVID-19 Call Center at 860-679-3199 for guidance. Also, expect to follow the online workplace guidelines including the available COVID-19 Decision Charts.

A high-risk exposure means being less than 6 feet away from an individual with confirmed or suspected COVID-19 for a cumulative total of 15 minutes or more over a 24-hour period while at least one person is unmasked.

COVID-19 symptoms include, but are not limited to, the following new or worsening symptoms, not related to another condition:

  • Feeling feverish or a measured temperature greater than or equal to 100.0°F
  • Cough
  • Shortness of breath or difficulty breathing
  • Fatigue
  • Muscle or body aches
  • Headache
  • New loss of taste or smell
  • Sore throat
  • Congestion or runny nose
  • Nausea or vomiting
  • Diarrhea
