Wash your hands often with soap and water for at least 20 seconds or use hand sanitizer.

MONITORING PERSONAL HEALTH | We encourage you to protect your personal health to prevent getting sick.
- One recommendation is to venture out for only essential errands.
- Pay close attention to the development of any symptoms and regularly check your temperature.
- If you are not feeling well or experiencing any of the following symptoms, self-isolate and Stay Home! Contact your health care provider and then your faculty for additional instructions. Symptoms may appear 2-14 days after exposure to the virus.
- Be assured, your RCC faculty will work with any student self-isolating or self-quarantining to complete missed coursework.
Slow the Spread | As businesses are opening, you may responsibly resume some daily activities as safely as possible. While there is no way to ensure zero risk, it is important to understand potential risks and help reduce the spread of COVID-19.
- The more closely you interact with others and the longer that interaction, the higher the risk of COVID-19 spread.
- If you decide to engage in public activities, continue to protect yourself by practicing everyday preventive actions.
- Keep these items on hand when venturing out: a cloth face covering, tissues, and a hand sanitizer with at least 60% alcohol, if possible.
- If you have traveled or been exposed to coronavirus, you should self-isolate or self-quarantine and notify your healthcare provider and then your faculty for further instructions.
