Rec Services staff will ask all patrons wishing to use the Beauchamp Center a series of questions related to COVID-19.

Anyone, including Rec Services employees, that answers “yes” to one or more of these screening questions or does not meet the temperature criteria, will not be allowed to enter Beauchamp

All entrants will be asked the questions below:

Do you have any of the following?
Fever or feeling feverish (such as chills, sweating), cough, mild or moderate difficulty breathing, sore throat, muscle aches or body aches, vomiting or diarrhea, or a recent loss of taste or smell.

In the past 14 days, have you been in contact with a person known or suspected to have COVID-19 disease?

Have you been told by a healthcare provider that you or someone in your household should be in isolation or quarantine?

Are you scheduled to receive a medically recommended test for COVID-19, or are your results pending?

Do you have a temperature greater than or equal to 100.4 Fahrenheit or 38 Celsius? The onsite thermometer reading will confirm the response.

Anyone, including Rec Services employees, that answers “yes” to one or more of these screening questions or does not meet the temperature criteria, will not be allowed to enter Beauchamp Recreation Center.
Anyone that answers “yes” to questions 1, 2, 3 and 5 will be instructed to self-isolate and contact the Student Health Center or their medical provider to report their wellness condition.
The results of the screening information will not be collected, nor retained by the university.

Please be aware: the screening will not identify those who are infected with COVID-19. People who have COVID-19 may not have symptoms, may have mild symptoms or may not yet be showing symptoms. This means that people in the Beauchamp Center may be contagious with COVID-19, so it is very important that members continue to follow guidance from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention by maintaining physical distance, washing hands often, and cleaning high-touch surfaces frequently.
