Staff who have received their first dose of COVID-19 vaccine should follow the After COVID Vaccination Tip Sheet for Employees, for a guide on checking your symptoms within the first three days after receiving your vaccine, what to do if you experience any side effects and any work restrictions based on your reaction. This tip sheet has recently been updated to reflect a modification to the COVID-19 Vaccination Policy that now requires testing for mild post-vaccination reactions/symptoms only if they last for more than one day during the three-day post-vaccination period.
Brigham and Women’s Faulkner Hospital continues to offer on-site COVID-19 testing for asymptomatic (no signs of illness) staff members free of charge, with results returned to you approximately 24-36 hours later. Learn more and schedule a test.
