A Toolkit for Long-Term Care Employers
Influenza is a serious health threat, especially for vulnerable populations like older adults and people living with chronic medical conditions. It’s especially important that people living with and caring for frail, disabled and/or aging persons—including those who work in long-term care (LTC)—get vaccinated for influenza.
This comprehensive toolkit includes a number of resources intended to help long-term care facility, agency, corporation owners and administrators provide access to influenza vaccination for their workforce and to help any employer of workers in long-term care understand the importance of influenza vaccination for their employees.
