Fairfield University: Daily Health Survey

The Customer

Fairfield University is a private Jesuit University located in Fairfield, Connecticut. Fairfield has a total enrollment of 5,000 undergraduate and graduate students.

The Situation

As Fairfield began planning to reopen for the Fall 2020 semester, the university wanted a way to conduct daily health screenings of students, faculty, staff, and visitors to prevent the spread of COVID-19. Fairfield also wanted to ensure that Daily Health Questionnaire data could be effectively processed every day.

The Solution

Fairfield incorporated Vector LiveSafe into its reopening plan so that each student, visitor, faculty and staff member is screened for COVID-19 symptoms before arriving on campus each day. Notifications of At-Risk responses are sent via email to the responsible department: for students, the student health center; for faculty and staff, human resources; and for visitors, public safety. This ensures that those experiencing COVID-19 symptoms are connected with the appropriate resources.

The Result

With the help of Vector LiveSafe, Fairfield students, faculty and staff feel more prepared to safely return to campus, class, and work.
