Access to Personal Protective Equipment (PPE)  

I have questions about PPE supplies. Who do I contact?

For questions about PPE supplies, email ehs@cpp.edu.

How can students, faculty and staff access PPE?

Basic Personal Protective Equipment (PPE), including disposable masks and gloves, are available in wall-mounted dispensers near the main entrances of most buildings. Department PPE designees can access PPE hubs for additional supplies.

Students may use wall-mounted dispensers for obtaining general PPE.

For specialized PPE such as face shields, contact department PPE designees, who will place an order through the COVID-19 Resource Request Form

Who is my department’s PPE designee?

Visit the Safer Return PPE webpage to find department PPE designees.  Contact PPE designees to order larger quantities of standard and specialized PPE. Designees will order PPE using the online order form or access supplies from PPE hubs located across the campus.

How do we access PPE after 5 p.m. for urgent, unplanned needs? 

Generally, department orders should be placed by the PPE hub designee in advance using the COVID-19 Resource Request form. For urgent requests, contact the University Police Department at (909) 869-3070. 

How do departments request specialized PPE such as face shields with drapes? 

Specialized PPE (including face shields, clear masks and covers for musical instruments) can be requested by PPE designees or department heads using the COVID-19 Resource Request form. In order to minimize situations when there is an immediate need and supplies are not readily available, each department is urged to stock up on specialized PPE that is likely to be needed.

The quantity of specialized PPE to have on hand is determined by each department. Distribution Services plans to maintain a central stock of all PPE items, including specialized items, to be filled upon request via the Emergency Management order process

Can I request PPE to be sent to my residence? 

No, resources are only available on-campus and will not be sent to a personal residence.
