If a student was exposed to a patient being ruled out for COVID-19, whether or not the student was wearing the required personal protective equipment (PPE), the student should contact Student Health Services (SHS, 508-334-8464) for further guidance. Students exposed to patients at high suspicion for COVID-19 will begin a 14-day self-quarantine until the test results for the patient are returned. If the tests are negative, the student will come off self-quarantine.

Please note: this advice is different from recommendations for clinical faculty, and this recommendation may change, so contact Student Health immediately in any event, for updated and accurate guidance.
