For Employees

* If you are both a nursing student and an employee, student requirements take precedence.

UMB Procedures

  • UMB COVID-19 Management Portal
  • UMB COVID-19 Vaccination Protocols 
  • COVID-19 Vaccine Exemption Process
  • COVID-19 Isolation/Quarantine Protocols
    • Please use the COVID-19 Report Form when you’ve tested positive for COVID-19, have symptoms that may be due to COVID-19, or had a close contact exposure.
    • When using the form, please remember to check your email after submitting. The email will provide specific instructions, including possible recommendations for you to not come to campus, get tested, and isolate. (Additionally, if you receive an error message when opening the form, please use an alternate Web browser.)
    • If you still have questions after using the form or if your situation does not quite fit, contact Kelsey Bradford, school health officer and assistant professor, at kbradford@umaryland.edu or 410-706-2589.
    • Students also can seek assistance from Student Health by emailing shealth@som.umaryland.edu.
    • Even if you know what to do, we appreciate you letting us know about positive COVID-19 tests — the information you share helps us understand campus trends and risks.
