Return to Campus Planning: Signage, Daily Health Screening and Safety Measures

In preparation for the phased return to on-campus operations, Webster University employees should review the directives on returning to campus, and be mindful of social distancing and other signage on the main campus.

Signage is also available for use by extended campus locations. To download signs for use at extended locations, visit the signage resources provided by Global Marketing & Communications and available for download on the COVID-19 pages.

As part of the return, anyone entering campus will be required to perform and pass a daily health self-assessment, among other measures to maintain the health and safety of our community.

Faculty, staff and students can complete the health self-assessment via a web-based application. Verification of completed health assessment will be sent to the individual through their Webster University email address.

Visitors (non faculty/staff/students) are permitted on campus, by appointment, if they are visiting for a business/operations purpose. Notification to Public Safety (via publicsafety@webster.edu) is required for a campus visitor that includes date, time and purpose of visit. Allvisitors must report to Public Safety for a health screening. 

Required Daily Health Screening

As previously announced, face coverings are required while on campus, and faculty, staff and students are required to complete the daily health screening prior to coming to campus. The screening is completed through the secure Office 365 platform, accessed here: healthform.webster.edu.

• Verification of completed health assessment will be sent to the individual through their Webster University email address noting an approval or a denial to enter campus buildings.
• If approved to come to campus: Supervisors will have responsibility to review an employee’s verification to be on campus for each day. The email should be kept easily accessible to produce when necessary.
