Employee Health Services is now offering influenza immunizations for employees of Loma Linda University Health in preparation for the 2017-2018 flu season.
All employees who enter clinical areas must either receive the in?uenza immunization or provide a written declination, as required by California Senate Bill 739, if they work a single day from Oct. 1, 2017, through March 31, 2018.
Employees who do not receive the immunization must wear a mask beginning Nov. 1 and continuing at least through March, by order of the San Bernardino County Health Department. They must also complete their declination form by Dec. 31.
Staff members who receive the flu vaccine through Employee Health Services will be given a blue-and-white sticker for their badges, signifying their immunized status. Those who get the immunization at another location can receive the sticker after completing a “received-elsewhere” form.
The PDF below provides a schedule for when Employee Health Services will offer the vaccination at various locations around campus between Oct. 16 and Nov. 7.
