It is an expectation of the health district that staff be properly immunized against vaccine-preventable diseases, which they may be exposed to in the course of their duties or for which they may potentially expose clients.
As a condition of employment, individuals hired for certain positions are requested to show proof of immunity or vaccination for several diseases (see Immunization Policy). New employees may sign a declination of immunizations based on medical, religious, or philosophical objections. New employees are responsible for all costs associated with obtaining immunizations.
