  • 1.  What can we ask students?

    Posted 03-06-2020 12:19:00 PM
    Good morning,

    My question to the community is as follows: 

    In monitoring our medical student population, when a student reports fever, cough, etc in themselves to us as administrators in order for us to tract absenteeism as well as possible exposure, after we instruct the student to see their provider, what can we ask the student to report back to us diagnostically without overstepping a protected boundary? 

    Thanks
