Fall 2023 Policies

The AIMC Campus is currently open to staff members, students, prospective students, & patients with scheduled appointments. All of our official, current COVID-19 Policies can be found in our COVID-19 Safety Manual.

COVID-19 Symptoms

Anyone experiencing symptoms such as a cough, fever, new loss of sense of taste or smell, shortness of breath, or other COVID-19 associated symptom should not request entry into our Campus. If you have visited campus in the last 14 days and begin to experience COVID-19 Symptoms, please notify the AIMC Clinic Director (clinicdirector@aimc.edu​) to provide information about your symptoms and exposure. This information will remain confidential and is only for the purposes of contact tracing and preventing further spread of the novel coronavirus.

If you are seeking an appointment and have new COVID-19 related symptoms, please schedule a Telehealth Consult rather than in In-Person Appointment.

Clinical Settings

As of May 8th 2023, patients and practitioners are highly recommended but not required to wear a mask in clinical settings. Patients may request that their care providers wear masks in the treatment room.

Non-Clinical Settings

In accordance with CDC and Alameda County guidance as of August 2022, wearing masks in the didactic and administrative areas of AIMC is optional, except in the case of anyone who has had a possible COVID exposure within the previous 5 days. All exposed persons, regardless of vaccination status, should wear a high-quality mask for 10 days, and test for COVID 19 on day 5. If you test negative, continue to mask for 5 days and monitor for symptoms until day 10.
