[MCOH-EH] [EXT] Covid Vaccination

[William.Scott]

Dr. Hackett, there is nolonger a mandate via CMS or our state health department. Since there is no mandate but is recommended by ACIP and CDC for healthcare workers as best practice. I am interested in knowing how many institutions/clinics are offering this to their working populations either voluntarary or manitory level or just not offering it all.

Our system is reevaluating their approach to covid vaccination mandate.
The RIDOH is being vague about mandating being up to date and leaving it to each institution to determine want it wants to do.
Do you still mandate the covid vaccine to work within your institution?
Do you mandate the influenza vaccine?
If yes does it apply to all employees including remote employees?
Do you require ppe if not vaccinated or just patient facing?
Do you require ppe for all employees during peak respiratory illness season?
As always
Thank you
Charlie
