Ways to Manage the People You are Screening for Covid-19

These are some extraordinary times we are living in. A few months ago, no one in America knew what COVID-19 was. In a short period of time, the virus has crashed economies, broken healthcare systems, filled hospitals, and emptied public spaces. It has separated people from their workplaces, family, and friends. Many experts felt for many years that a global pandemic was inevitable. “What if?” has become “Now what?” We are all focusing on hygiene, protection, and distancing. Another big necessity is keeping those who may have COVID-19 from those who may not. Hospitals are screening their staff, businesses are screening their deliveries, and stores are screening their customers. As the crisis has progressed, so has our response to it, both internally and in the solutions we have developed to help you cope with it. Please see below for ideas on how to manage the people that your organization must see and screen every day. We are open for business, taking orders, and shipping product every day to serve your needs. Most of all, thank you for everything you do to take care of yourself and others, and please stay safe.

When you screen your visitors with eVisitor software

Two new updates provide helpful functionality during the COVID-19 outbreak. 1. Add SCREENED to your badges to remind everyone that visitors have been screened prior to being allowed access to your building. 2. Collect VISITOR CONTACT INFORMATION (phone number or any contact info you want) when visitors sign in so you have a way to reach them in case of an event that requires contact tracing at your facility. eVisitor software makes it easy to sign in, badge, and track visitors with cloud-based data access. Available for signing in visitors by your staff or for visitors to sign in themselves. Contact us to learn more and request a free demonstration. Watch this video, then call 800-243-1969 or submit this form.

TOMORROW: The sticker shows “VOID,” alerting you that the visitor wasn’t screened that day. 2-part Dot Sets Stickers with an open red circle that expires – This shows your staff that visitors have been screened. – The sticker changes color overnight, so the visitor badge can’t be reused.
