Vaccinated employees will receive a sticker for their employee ID badge. Health care providers who decline vaccination and do not have a vaccination sticker on their ID badge will be required to wear a mask when within six feet of patients during inpatient and outpatient clinical encounters during influenza season. Because of the serious risk to patient safety, employees should not decline the vaccine for any reason other than medical contraindication.

Employees who receive the flu vaccine from their primary care physician or an outside health care organization must submit a copy of the proof of vaccine form to Employee Health to receive an ID badge flu sticker.
