Screen2Work is daily self-accountability for all onsite faculty, staff and students if experiencing any COVID-19 symptoms or exposure to obtain guidance prior to entering any F&MCW facility or location. This precautionary measure as well as additional parallel efforts, can slow the spread of COVID-19 and better protect our communities.

Staff, physicians and APPs are required to screen for symptoms of COVID-19 before entering our buildings if they have any COVID 19 symptoms or have had an exposure. The screening process helps keep our staff and patients safe and shows patients we are taking extra measures to protect them. The Screen2Work program within Froedtert & MCW health network’s mobile app is an easy way to get screened.
