I understand that, due to my occupational exposure to blood or other Potentially infectious materials, I may be at risk of aquiring hepatitis b Virus (hbv) infection. I have been given the opportunity to be vaccinated With hepatitis b vaccine, at no charge to myself. However, I decline the Hepatitis b vaccination at this time. I understand that by declining this Vaccine, I continue to be at risk of acquiring hepatitis b, a serious disease. If in the future, I continue to have occupational exposure to blood or Other potentially infectious materials and I want to be vaccinated with The hepatitis b vaccine, I can receive the vaccination series at no charge to Me.
My employer, Accu Care Home Health Services, recommends that I receive the influenza vaccination to protect myself, patients, staff, and others in the healthcare facility.
Influenza is a serious respiratory disease. Each year in the United States, influenza kills thousands of people and causes hundreds of thousands of hospitalizations.
Influenza vaccination is recommended for me and all other healthcare personnel to protect our staff and our facility’s patients from influenza, its complications, and death.
If I contract influenza, I can shed the virus for 24 hours before any influenza symptoms appear. During the time I shed the virus, I can transmit influenza to patients and staff in this facility.
If I become infected with influenza, even if my symptoms are mild or non-existent, I can spread influenza to others. Symptoms that are mild or non-existent in me can cause serious illness and death in others.
