Ebola Virus Disease (EVD) Primary Screening tool
The Ebola Virus Disease (EVD) Primary Screening Tool is a job aid developed to help healthcare workers identify individuals who may have symptoms or risk factors associated with Ebola before they enter a health facility. The tool supports the early detection of suspected Ebola cases through an initial screening process, allowing for timely isolation, referral, and infection prevention measures. Its purpose is to reduce the risk of Ebola transmission within healthcare settings and strengthen outbreak preparedness and response efforts.
This screening tool was developed as part of Uganda’s Ebola preparedness and response activities during the 2022 Sudan Ebola Virus Disease outbreak.
