Boone Health employees are encouraged, but not required to get vaccinated against COVID-19.
However, those not vaccinated by October 4th will need to follow additional guidelines for safety, including increased restrictions during meal breaks and weekly COVID-19 testing.
Whether employees are vaccinated or not, they are required to wear appropriate PPE to provide a safe environment for patients and staff.
Leadership is continuing to monitor the situation in Boone County and policies will be adjusted as needed.
