Make flu injections mandatory for Care Workers and Health Professionals
We have two carers visiting four times a day to help look after a bedbound 88 year old man who has dementia. The patient is very frail and has been visited by carers with cold/flu symptoms on a number of occasions. This is obviously very worrying for the family and is putting the patient at risk.
I have checked with the carers and agency and it seems they are not obliged to have a flu vaccine. It also seems that the carers are encouraged to work even when they have the symptoms due to staff shortages.
You can't sign this petition because it is now closed. But you can still comment on it here at Repetition.me!
