RMERC Infectious Disease Policy
February 28, 2024
The RMERC infectious disease policy reflects our desire to create a retreat environment in which participants feel safe, relaxed, and at ease. Details of our policies are below.
At this time, RMERC does not require covid vaccinations, testing, or masks. However, individual retreats may implement policies that are more stringent than the RMERC requirements. Please see the descriptions of individual retreats or check with the retreat leader.
Pre-Retreat: To ensure everyone’s safety, we ask that you wear an N95 mask during travel, especially during air travel and in public spaces, regardless of government or health guidelines. Please be vigilant in staying healthy during the 10 days leading up to your retreat.
Infectious Disease Symptoms: If you are experiencing symptoms prior to or during your retreat, please consider the welfare of others in your decision to attend the retreat. RMERC leaves it to the leader’s and the residential manager’s discretion to ask people to leave if symptoms and the situation warrants. Please get in touch with your retreat contact person if you are showing any symptoms before the retreat.
Lodging Concerns: HEPAA compliant air purifiers will be available for use in all shared double rooms in the RMERC lodge. Anyone is welcome to wear a mask at RMERC at any time.
RMERC reserves the right to modify this infectious disease policy at any time, to respond to changes in public health conditions or guidelines. All infectious disease policies are subject to change at any time.
