It would be much safer if residents were allowed 1 person in their room than 1 person in a common space where others who use that space that day may get sick]]> 2020-08-07 20:27:09 UTC https://padlet.com/asad6/covid19questions/wish/672790492 What kind of disciplinary action can RAs do to residents regarding the mask policy? https://padlet.com/asad6/covid19questions/wish/672790508 2020-08-07 20:27:10 UTC https://padlet.com/asad6/covid19questions/wish/672790508 Will we have to write up residents when not following COVID guidelines to enforce it? https://padlet.com/asad6/covid19questions/wish/672790933 2020-08-07 20:27:50 UTC https://padlet.com/asad6/covid19questions/wish/672790933 If the carts will be available for residents to use, aren't they also high touch items?

Our contracts don't say anything about that https://padlet.com/asad6/covid19questions/wish/672791708 2020-08-07 20:28:47 UTC https://padlet.com/asad6/covid19questions/wish/672791708 Who will be in charge with regulating the guest policy? How will RAs know if residents how more than 2 individuals (including themselves) in their rooms? Who will be held accountable if these policies are broken (RAs or Residents)? How will RAs know if a UA student is in his/her/their dorm? Follow up: How are RAs going to know if a student we see in the dorm lives there? https://padlet.com/asad6/covid19questions/wish/672791725 2020-08-07 20:28:48 UTC https://padlet.com/asad6/covid19questions/wish/672791725 https://padlet.com/asad6/covid19questions/wish/672791749 I feel like it would be safer to keep guests in resident rooms where they are isolated than taking them to shared spaces. Could we allow guests in rooms with a guest limit instead of not at all?]]> 2020-08-07 20:28:50 UTC https://padlet.com/asad6/covid19questions/wish/672791749 Will we be notified if someone in our hall tests positive? will we be provided testing in this situation? https://padlet.com/asad6/covid19questions/wish/672792023 2020-08-07 20:29:05 UTC https://padlet.com/asad6/covid19questions/wish/672792023 There have been many dorms in the past that have expected RAs to do rounds by themselves and call for "backup" from fellow staff members if a situation were to arise. Is there a possibility of having halls do that as opposed to attempting to maintain 6ft during rounds? https://padlet.com/asad6/covid19questions/wish/672792130 2020-08-07 20:29:16 UTC https://padlet.com/asad6/covid19questions/wish/672792130 Community bathrooms - assigning stalls https://padlet.com/asad6/covid19questions/wish/672792178 If we need to share a bathroom, by assigning a stall you will limit your potential exposure as toilets and showers are big transmission points. If 20 residents use one bathroom, you are exposed with all 20 people, but if each is assigned to one of four stalls, you limit that bathroom exposure to 5 people. ]]> 2020-08-07 20:29:20 UTC https://padlet.com/asad6/covid19questions/wish/672792178 Truly feel like housing is not considering the RA's safety here. At all. https://padlet.com/asad6/covid19questions/wish/672792224 2020-08-07 20:29:24 UTC https://padlet.com/asad6/covid19questions/wish/672792224 RA guests https://padlet.com/asad6/covid19questions/wish/672792250 why are RAs with negative tests and other RAs with negative tests not allowed to be our guest? considering we are expected to regulate the entire hall's rule following regarding covid, i feel we as Ras are capable of regulating ourselves as well

This is extremely backward thinking. If we’re not testing every person who comes into the building, the risk is just as extreme. You’re not fooling us by pretending you’re taking it seriously. ]]> 2020-08-07 20:31:21 UTC https://padlet.com/asad6/covid19questions/wish/672796309 Guest Policy Change https://padlet.com/asad6/covid19questions/wish/672796322 it makes a lot more sense to me to allow residents guests in their room and not in the common spaces, you can control you comes in and out of your room but have no control over who uses the common spaces]]> 2020-08-07 20:31:22 UTC https://padlet.com/asad6/covid19questions/wish/672796322 Do they really think that the guest policy really wont have a large negative affect on mental health? We are not designed for complete isolation and this could heavily affect residents and staff who require face to face support or are struggling with mental health. And don't expect everyone to be financially available to go to CAPS. https://padlet.com/asad6/covid19questions/wish/672796527 2020-08-07 20:31:41 UTC https://padlet.com/asad6/covid19questions/wish/672796527 6ft distancing on rounds is a bit pointless, covid dissipates over an area, and a traveling person would just give it to the person behind them (their duty partner) https://padlet.com/asad6/covid19questions/wish/672796570 2020-08-07 20:31:45 UTC https://padlet.com/asad6/covid19questions/wish/672796570 If a dorm room is said to be a safe place to "accommodate 2 residents" why can't RA's have 1 guest assuming they have tested negative for COVID? https://padlet.com/asad6/covid19questions/wish/672796670 2020-08-07 20:31:55 UTC https://padlet.com/asad6/covid19questions/wish/672796670 So like, are we going to be handing out masks to residents?

Isolation is not a cost less rule. The effects on mental health and the happiness of the individual may be greater than is seen at surface. I think isolation as a hall should be considered, as interactions in bathrooms and hallways are already inevitable, and putting restrictions that do not greatly reduce the spread of COVID but could hurt mental health may do more harm than good.]]> 2020-08-07 20:53:02 UTC https://padlet.com/asad6/covid19questions/wish/672810047 Are RA's going to be fired or go through a conduct process for voicing our opinions? https://padlet.com/asad6/covid19questions/wish/672811536 2020-08-07 20:55:15 UTC https://padlet.com/asad6/covid19questions/wish/672811536 So, train us for N95 mask... https://padlet.com/asad6/covid19questions/wish/672812039 2020-08-07 20:56:04 UTC https://padlet.com/asad6/covid19questions/wish/672812039 Dorms with Ensuite Bathrooms https://padlet.com/asad6/covid19questions/wish/672812458 It's frustrating that only tier 3 (coro) and tier 4 (honors) have access to ensuite/private bathrooms.

We do not really have answers for most of our questions. Why is one of the big ones right now. Why are guests allowed in certain areas yet not in the room? Why are 5 people allowed in the bathrooms with no mark when there is not going to be 6 feet separating everyone? Most Ras do not have roomates which means most of their interactions will be online and that does not see very conducive to positive mental health. A lot of policy just seems like it has to be revisited. I also feel as if we needed more time to discuss all of this and like many people have said... WE live here as well. Shouldn't we get a say in how everything is done? There is so much more I could touch on....
