Labouré College Return to Campus Plan:

Health screening includes a symptom check survey prior to arriving on campus, and a temperature screening at the door. You will receive instructions via email. You can also view the instructional video at my.laboure.edu on the Return to Campus tab. 

Students will self-report whether they have any symptoms associated with COVID-19. Students who report yes to any COVID-19 symptom via the COVID-19 symptom health screening and/or present with a temperature of 100 degrees Fahrenheit or higher will not be allowed on campus. These students will receive instruction from the Health and Wellness Coordinator on what to do next, and are also encouraged to contact their primary care provider regarding their symptoms. 

COVID-19 testing will be required for those who present with a fever of 100 degrees Fahrenheit or higher, or report any symptoms of COVID-19. The College will provide access to testing if the student does not have coverage through their own health insurance. Students will connect with the Health and Wellness Coordinator for instructions, and are also encouraged to contact their primary care provider.

If the test is negative, the student must contact the Health and Wellness Coordinator with test results for clearance to return to class. Students must be symptom-free to return to class.

If the test is positive, the student must contact the Health and Wellness Coordinator with test results, and notify their instructor for attendance* purposes. Positive test results indicate that the student has COVID-19 and should not come to campus and should isolate at home. Students should keep in touch with the Health and Wellness Coordinator regarding their timeline for discontinuation of home isolation for students with COVID-19 and allowance to return to campus. 

*Students will not be penalized for absence due to COVID-19 illness or testing wait times, and arrangements will be made for make-up at no additional cost to students. 

Students are only allowed entry to the Classroom building during Stage 1.

The Mansion building and Welcome Center are operating remotely. Students can connect with those offices and departments using the information in the "Contacts for On-Campus Resources" dropdown.

The College will provide gowns, face shields, gloves and masks for all students in clinical simulation or lab experiences on campus in Stage 1.
