ABSTRACT
@#COVID-19 has brought disruptions in university operations that required the institution of health and safety protocols. The purpose of this study is to examine the experience of a college of nursing in developing and implementing these protocols. A multi- method design was employed using an online survey of 114 respondents and 6 key informant interviews from faculty, staff, and students. Results of the study suggest that the personnel and students rated their satisfaction on the college health and safety protocols towards higher scores in the areas of symptom monitoring, testing, contact tracing, isolation, referral, ventilation, disinfection, handwashing, limiting in-person activities, vaccination and health insurance requirement. Challenges reported were on their compliance to symptom monitoring and funds needed to the courses of action should they require testing elsewhere or test positive. Participants suggested more reminders on the compliance to health and safety protocols. The COVID-19 pandemic has provided important lessons learned to better respond to a future pandemic. Key areas of action have been identified which requires adequate planning of the university and all major stakeholders.
