For Employees: The COVID-19 Hotline is a first stop for all current employees on all campuses to ask COVID-related questions, to be connected to further resources including potential testing at an OhioHealth testing site or guidance to alternative testing sites, and to submit reports of positive COVID-19 tests.  Employees can also receive return to work assistance and management in accordance with COVID-specific University protocols. If a COVID test is needed, the 91̽»¨ COVID-19 Response Hotline will work with a provider to place the order. It is important to note that a provider’s order is required for COVID-19 testing.

To help prevent the spread of COVID-19 across our campus communities, 91̽»¨ has implemented a mandatory form for students and employees that centralizes the reporting of COVID-19 illness or exposure.
