Giving a<br />
Special Gift<br />
Mandatory Flu Shots<br />
Boca Raton Regional Hospital’s policy states that flu shots are mandatory<br />
for all Hospital employees and volunteers. The Centers for Disease<br />
Control and Prevention recommends annual influenza vaccination for<br />
all individuals six months of age and older and mandatory healthcare<br />
worker vaccination is endorsed by several national medical societies.<br />
Is someone you know having a<br />
special birthday or anniversary and<br />
you don’t know what to give them?<br />
Why not honor them by making a<br />
contribution in their name to the<br />
Debbie-Rand Memorial Service<br />
League. Their name will appear in<br />
the newsletter and you will receive<br />
an in-kind donation for the amount<br />
donated. In turn, if your donation<br />
is $20 or more, the Boca Raton<br />
Regional Hospital Foundation<br />
will give you credit toward your<br />
benefactor status.<br />
You may also wish to remember<br />
a loved one or friend that may<br />
be deceased. What better way to<br />
memorialize them.<br />
Remember, for the person who<br />
has everything, a gift to the Debbie-<br />
Rand Memorial Service League<br />
is priceless!<br />
Volunteers who are unable to get a flu shot for religious or medical<br />
reasons must complete an exemption form, which can be obtained in<br />
the Volunteer Office. All volunteers must provide proof of receiving<br />
a flu shot no earlier than August 2013 or complete an exemption<br />
form. Volunteers who work in patient care areas and are granted an<br />
exemption will be required to wear a mask while performing their<br />
duties throughout the entire flu season (December 1 through March 31).<br />
Flu shots are covered by Medicare and most health insurers and are<br />
generally available at physician’s offices and most pharmacies. Shots<br />
will be administered at the Hospital on a limited basis for volunteers<br />
who are unable to obtain them elsewhere. All volunteers must submit<br />
to the Volunteer Office either proof of receiving a current flu shot or a<br />
signed exemption form no later than December 1, 2013.<br />
Upon submission of proof of receiving the flu shot, volunteers will have<br />
a designation sticker affixed to their hospital identification badge.<br />
Thank you for your cooperation in adhering to this important policy.<br />
