COVID-19 Vaccine Information
The SSU Health Clinic has enrolled to become an Ohio COVID-19 Vaccine Provider when vaccine doses are available. We do not have vaccine doses at this time but will post here when we have a supply and are able to accept appointments.
The health and safety of our campus community is our priority. This site contains guidance for students, faculty, staff and visitors — along with information about our efforts to reduce the spread of COVID-19. If you have questions or concerns, contact the SSU Health Team at (740) 351-3276.
Schedule COVID-19 Testing
If you are experiencing symptoms stay home and schedule an appointment for testing at the SSU Health Clinic. If you are symptom-free, walk-in rapid testing is available to faculty, staff and students Monday-Friday from 10 am to 4 pm in the Student Annex Building.
Report an Illness, Exposure or Positive Test
Students, faculty and staff who test positive for COVID-19 or who are experiencing symptoms consistent with COVID-19 are required to self-report through Health Pass on the SSU App or the COVID-19 Incident form:
Steadfast in Our Commitment to Reducing the Spread of COVID-19 At the Start of Spring 2021 Semester
A Message from President Jeff Bauer:
Staying safe is more important now than ever. Here is what you can do to reduce the spread of COVID-19 on campus:
- Stay home if you are feeling sick.
- Complete pre-screening using the Health Pass on the SSU App before arriving to campus.
- Wear a mask on campus.
- Wash your hands frequently.
- Maintain a distance of at least six feet from others.
- Check-in to classrooms and spaces on campus using the SSU App and posted QR Codes.
- Get vaccinated when it's your turn.
We’re in the final stretch of the pandemic and need to remain diligent during Spring Semester to stay healthy and safe. Shawnee State is working with local health departments and agencies to assist with drive-thru vaccination events for community groups as vaccine is available.
Look for more information in the coming weeks as details are finalized.
In the meantime, have a happy — and safe — Spring 2021 Semester!
Sincerely,
Jeff
