Daily Health Screen

To assist with symptom monitoring, faculty, staff, and students must complete the RIT Daily Health Screen every day, seven days a week, whether or not they are coming to campus.

If someone experiences symptoms after completing the Daily Health Screen, they must complete it again that same day. The goal is to protect the health and safety of the RIT community.

The screen will provide users with instructions on how to proceed if they are experiencing symptoms or have been in contact with someone who has COVID-19. They will also receive reminder emails every day to complete the RIT Daily Health Screen.

Students, faculty, and staff can access the Daily Health Screen online at dailyhealth.rit.edu or by calling 585-438-5257. You will need your University ID# if you call to report your symptoms. Visitors should call 585-438-5254.

The Daily Health Screen, which is a website that can be accessed from your phone, doesn’t collect data about you, your health, or your physical location. It records whether or not you’ve performed the Daily Health Check and your status (green or red). You will have the option to complete the Daily Health Screen by calling a designated number using your phone and answering the questions via an automated phone system. You must know your University ID to use this method.

Since the Daily Health Screen is a website and doesn’t require anything to be installed on your phone, it does not track your location on or off campus. Location is logged only when you check into a location by scanning a QR code or manually entering your location into the website.
