CURRENT SITUATION

  • Through March 31, 2022, TTUHSC is implementing temporary attendance reductions to 25% occupancy for university-sponsored conferences, meetings, and events. Exceptions for up to 50% may be granted with appropriate dean, vice president or provost approval. Attendance for academic instruction, residency workshops, and orientation activities remains at 100%. 
  • FACIAL COVERINGS ARE highly recommended when individuals are indoors among groups of people on the TTUHSC campuses and required in patient care areas for all team members, students, patients and guests
  • Should you suspect you have COVID-19, you are experiencing symptoms, or know you have been exposed to the virus, you need to report such to Institutional Health through the online attestation form.
  • Please continue to reference TTUHSC SAFE page for current safety protocols, balancing increased campus operations with appropriate safety measures.

 

Our priority is to maintain a safe environment as we transition back to working on campus for operations, clinics, academic instruction and managed care units.
