Campus food pantry UPDATE
|
Under normal circumstances, St. Elizabeth's Bread Basket would serve as a safety net for our students experiencing food insecurity. However, the Northeast Iowa Food Bank, where SEBB obtains the majority of the groceries for students, has limited operations. In the interest of food safety, community donations are limited and most often not available.
In the past, we would purchase them from local grocery stores. As you have likely also experienced, there is now an extremely limited supply of basic food items at nearly every grocery store.
Wartburg's Dining Services is still receiving regular shipments from its food distributor and providing healthy meals to our students every day, weekends included. We encourage any student with dietary restrictions or experiencing any form of food insecurity to speak with Dining Services or Student Life. No student remaining on campus should go hungry. We are here to help. Email jennifer.onuigbo@wartburg.edu with questions. Click here to follow SEBB updates on Facebook.

In an effort to reduce illness contact points, the Mail Center has shifted to doing targeted deliveries on campus. Each day by 11 a.m. we will send an email from mailroom@wartburg.edu outlining which offices will be visited, based on package and mail loads for the day. Offices are welcome to pick up at the service window or request a ‘locker delivery’ of that department’s mail and packages. If your office has outgoing mail that would be difficult for one person to carry in a single trip, you can respond, or send a separate email, requesting pick-up. Pick-up requests must be submitted before 2:30 p.m. in order to allow time to process the mail before leaving for the Post Office. We thank you for your understanding and cooperation.

COVID-19 testing for HealthPartners members
|
If you think you may have acquired or been exposed to COVID-19, you can take a screening assessment online at virtuwell or Doctor on Demand. Both are available 24/7 at no cost to you. If you have additional concerns, contact your primary care clinic.
As a HealthPartners member, you won’t have any out-of-pocket cost for administration of the COVID-19 laboratory test (regardless of where the test is performed). You will also not have out-of-pocket costs related to an in-network office or urgent care visit associated with the test*. Coverage with no member cost sharing will not apply to an emergency room visit. *If the test or office or urgent care visit is done out-of-network, coverage will be applied based on out-of-network benefits.
HealthPartners has also temporarily changed our early refill policy* due to the public health concerns caused by COVID-19. We want to ensure our members have access to adequate medication by allowing for early refills. *For Medicare members we anticipate this will in place as soon as possible.
