Annual influenza immunization of health care workers has been demonstrated to provide several benefits such as decreasing absenteeism/presenteeism, medical costs and the spread of influenza in the community. Influenza immunization is open to all Vanderbilt University and Medical Center faculty/staff and VUMC volunteers as a benefit for which there is no charge to the employee.

When the influenza vaccine is available in the fall, multiple dates and sites are designated for you to get the immunization. Occupational Health nurses can be scheduled to do onsite vaccinations in your department. Occupational Health nurses visit hospital work stations during late evening and night shifts. Vaccinations are given in the Occupational Health Clinic and do not require an appointment.

Flu season  has started, but it’s not too late to get your vaccine!

Flu Vaccines continue to be offered at the Occupational Health Clinic (OHC), located in the Medical Arts Building, 6th floor, 8am-5pm.

Don’t get flu. Don’t spread flu. Get vaccinated!
