A MESSAGE FROM THE SCHOOL NURSE/DIRECTOR OF HEALTH SERVICES

AUGUST 12, 2021

Dear Servite Community,

We are so excited to welcome students back to campus this week. We will strive to provide a full Servite experience for every student. 

We have a few reminders to share with you in the interest of keeping our Servite community safe and healthy

If your son has symptoms or is being tested for COVID-19, please notify Jennifer Gutierrez, School Nurse, immediately.

Campus Protocols:

• By entering campus, you confirm that you and/or your son are symptom free and have not been exposed to COVID.

• Masks must be worn indoors while on campus and are optional outdoors.

• Please keep your son home if he shows any symptoms of illness for his health and the health of the community. This means no class, no sports, and no activities.

• Hand sanitizer dispensers are provided in hallways, classrooms, around the lunch tables and throughout campus as well.  They should be utilized on the way in and out of classrooms and before eating. 

• The bathrooms are being sanitized throughout the day.

• Students should not share food or drinks.

COVID-19 protocols and guidelines can be found on our website at servitehs.org/health. OCHCA, in conjunction with UCI and CHOC Pediatricians and OC School Nurses, has developed a Student Symptom Decision Tree. This will be our beacon in determining when students, with even just one symptom, will be sent home and when they can return to campus.

If you have COVID-19 related concerns, questions, or believe your son needs to be tested, CHOC has established a toll-free number for your convenience. You can speak with a nurse who will triage your questions and determine if your son needs a telehealth appointment and/or testing. It is free, regardless of insurance. Call 1-844-GET CHOC.

I want you to know that confidentiality will be maintained if your son tests positive for COVID-19 at any time. Unfortunately, there seems to be a stigma with COVID-19 positive cases. Not being forthright about symptoms your son is experiencing or positive test results could result in an unnecessary outbreak on campus.  For the safety of others, please notify me immediately if your son tests positive, exhibits symptoms or is exposed to COVID.
