IOHS continues to monitor recommendations for the novel coronavirus (COVID-19) in an effort to support the health of our student population.  The situation regarding COVID-19 is evolving and rapidly changing as more is learned regarding transmission and patient outcomes. 

 

IOHS is in a little bit of a unique situation in that we have students across the country which have varying degrees of Virus outbreaks.

 

Below are relevant links to various information sites from the Department

of Education. These links will be posted on our Blackboard main page under “Site News” for our students and updated as necessary. 

 

 

1.  Students should follow the individual state/clinical site requirements.

2.  Any student with a respiratory illness or fever should not report to clinical’s.  

3.  Illnesses should be reported to IOHS administration.
