In accordance with Texas Children’s COVID-19 booster requirement, please see below. To reference a listing of common questions, please reference our FAQ.
- Requirement. Unless an approved exemption for the COVID-19 vaccine has already been granted, all full-time, part-time and per diem employees, as well as medical staff, contractors, on-site vendors and volunteers, are required to receive a booster dose of a COVID-19 vaccine.
- Deadlines. The deadline to meet this requirement, and have proof of your booster dose verified by Employee Health, is 5 p.m. on April 1, 2022. All employees are encouraged to receive their booster as quickly as possible to ensure the most robust level of protection and to allow enough time for verification.
