Vaccination for Staff

Healthcare workers are at a higher risk of being exposed to and transmitting vaccine-preventable diseases due to their occupation. To protect our staff, patients and the broader community, ERH offers an extensive vaccination program for our healthcare team.

Vaccines recommended for healthcare workers include those for COVID-19, Influenza, Measles, Rubella, Chickenpox, Hepatitis B and Pertussis. The program ensures that each healthcare worker receives appropriate vaccinations based on their specific work activities, providing the right level of protection.

The Australian Immunisation Handbook guides our vaccination practices, ensuring our staff are well-protected against occupational risks.
