BCCDC Flu Policy Survey – enter to win!

Healthcare Worker Knowledge, Attitudes, and Practices Study related to the BC Influenza Prevention Policy

The province introduced a new policy in 2012 that requires healthcare workers to get vaccinated against influenza or wear a mask in patient care areas during influenza season. The BC Centre for Disease Control is doing an evaluation study on the Policy, and you are encouraged to fill out a 10-15 minute survey on your experiences. All Health Authority employees who worked during the 2015/16 influenza season (December 1st to present) are invited to participate, including clinical staff, physicians, administrative staff, and support staff. Upon completion you can enter a draw to win a $500 Visa gift card.

This survey will look at why healthcare workers choose to get vaccinated or wear a mask during the influenza season.  It will also provide you with an opportunity to provide feedback regarding the Policy. This information will improve future influenza Immunization campaigns and implementation of the Policy. Your participation is important.
