Employees may decline to receive the vaccination, however, a waiver must be signed in either case. 6.3 Scheduling of Vaccinations Vaccinations will be conducted either by the Student Health Center or St. Jude Hospital, Industrial Medicine Clinic.
Scheduling is dependent on the availability of the serum and the schedule of the employee.
Since a booster must be done one month and six months after the initial vaccination, employees must be available at those times. 6.4 Student Athletic Trainers Student Athletic Trainers begin their two year internship with the University during the month of August. At that time, supervisors of the trainers will schedule initial vaccinations at the Student Health Center for those accepting the series. Titers should be checked 6 months following the last vaccination. 6.6 Record keeping A copy of the waiver and schedule of vaccinations must be kept by both the Supervisor and the Environmental Health and Safety Office.
