Good Afternoon Demon Deacons,
Facilities and Campus Services continue to take preventative measures regarding COVID-19 in compliance with Environmental Health and Safety and CDC Guidelines. Recently, questions have been asked as to what is being done on the weekends in residential facilities. Custodial Services have employees disinfecting high touch points and bathrooms once each day on Saturdays and Sundays.
When work is being completed in the bathrooms, custodians knock and announce themselves so that residents in these spaces are aware of the custodial staff's presence. Typically, custodial services are in and out of a bathroom in a minute or less, depending on the size of the bathroom. This work includes the custodian flushing the toilet(s) as they are disinfected. The bathroom work completed on the weekends is only completed in residential facilities where custodial staff services bathrooms on the weekdays.
Residence Life and Housing appreciates the continued work Facilities and Campus Services has provided to make our facilities as safe as possible during this pandemic.
