Vaccinations protect all of us from contracting and transmitting certain infectious conditions, keeping everyone safe and healthy. Since November 2017, new staff members have been required to be vaccinated for varicella (chickenpox), measles, mumps, rubella, tetanus and hepatitis B—in addition to the flu. By July 31, all staff members will need to provide proof of vaccination for these conditions.

You can satisfy the varicella, MMR, tetanus, hepatitis B vaccination requirement in one of three ways:

1. Have your doctor fax the completed Mercy staff vaccination cover sheet and proof of vaccination directly to Mercy Employee Health Services (EHS).
2. Complete 1) the Mercy staff vaccination cover sheet and 2) the Health Care for the Homeless cover sheet. Then, submit both documents or hand deliver them to Mercy EHS directly.
3. Get your vaccinations/titers performed at Mercy EHS, free of charge. Contact Ronni McDonald on the Human Resources team to schedule your appointment.
