New Year, New Health & Safety Resolutions

As 2022 kicks off and a new semester begins, many institutions are monitoring the omicron variant and are considering revising protocols to mitigate the risks of the COVID-19 variant for their campus community. Whether your institution is returning to campus or resuming remote or hybrid coursework, it is important to update, implement, and communicate health and safety protocols, such as daily symptom screening and COVID testing resources. The pandemic has also increased the prevalence of mental health issues in campus communities, so now is a valuable time to share relevant resources so that students, faculty, and staff know where to turn if they are struggling. 

As your partner in safety and security, Vector LiveSafe is committed to keeping your institution healthy and safe this new year. 

Use this Toolkit to review relevant resources and prepare your faculty, staff, and students for a healthy and successful spring semester.
