Update: Drops in are being accepted Wednesday and Thursday this week at the Occupational Health and Safety Office

Influenza, commonly known as “the flu”, is a respiratory infection caused by the influenza virus. It’s contagious and spreads rapidly from person to person. Fortunately, the influenza vaccine is safe and effective and can benefit people of all ages. Even if you’re healthy, getting immunized against influenza is a great way to protect those around you.

Our Hospital’s Occupational Health & Safety team is offering influenza vaccine for staff, physicians and volunteers. You can drop in to the Occupational Health and Safety Office on Thursdays from 0080-1200 and 1300-1530. Appointments are required outside of Thursdays by emailing TBRHSC.OccupationalHealthandSafety@tbh.net

Staff who attend are asked to wear short sleeves and are reminded to wear a mask and maintain physical distancing while waiting. Roaming carts will be occurring once/week or more based on staff availability.

If you have received your vaccine elsewhere please send proof of receipt to TBRHSC.OccupationalHealthandSafety@tbh.net.
