**Please remember to bring your completed INFLUENZA VACCINATION FORM with you to Emerson Suites

 

Tuesday, October 15th from 8:30am through 12:30pm in Emerson Suites, Ithaca College will be holding our annual Point of Dispensing (POD) for all faculty, staff, and students to receive a free flu vaccination

The POD is an important part of the Ithaca College emergency preparedness plan, and tests our ability to deliver potentially lifesaving medication quickly and efficiently during an emergency or disaster incident that may pose a threat to public health.

This is a very convenient opportunity for all Ithaca College community members to receive a free flu shot in a minimal amount of time. Participants are typically in and out of the POD in less than 5 minutes!  

During this event, all supervisors are encouraged to support faculty and staff participation. The following is a schedule based on faculty and staff locations, however if the scheduled time for your building is not convenient, please feel free to come in anytime between 8:30am and 12:30pm.  

8:30 – 9:30: Whalen, West Tower, Facilities, Park Center, East Tower, Central Services

9:30 – 10:30: Smiddy, Job Hall, Dining Services, Phillips Hall, PRWC, Williams, CHS, Fitness Center

10:30 – 11:30: Muller Center, Gannett, A&E, Terrace, Park Hall, CNS, Rothschild, Tower Concourse

11:30 – 12:30: Egbert, Hill, Public Safety/General, Ceracche, Dillingham, Alumni Hall, Hammond Health, Art Studio

We want to thank everyone in advance as participation will allow us to evaluate our current plan and staffing levels and will help us to be better prepared to respond in the event of an actual emergency, when you will need us most!  

Please Note: High dose flu shots are not administered at the POD. Anyone with special concerns should discuss with their personal physician what vaccine is most appropriate for them.

Individuals with disabilities requiring accommodations should contact Katie Sack at ksack@ithaca.edu or (607) 274-1208. We ask that requests for accommodations be made as soon as possible.
