Updated Employee Mask Policy

Written by Chancy Drugs | Oct 28, 2021 11:54:17 AM

Chancy Drugs’ top priority is to protect the health and safety of our employees and our patients.

  Vaccinated Employees (effective October 28, 2021):

  • Employees that have received both doses of the Moderna or Pfizer Covid-19 vaccine, or the single dose of the Johnson and Johnson Covid-19 vaccine are no longer required to wear masks during work hours. (To be considered fully vaccinated, employees must wait 2 weeks after receiving either the Johnson and Johnson one dose vaccine or the second dose of the Moderna or Pfizer vaccine.) 
  • Fully vaccinated employees assisting a patient away from the acrylic barriers must wear a mask. 

Unvaccinated Employees (effective October 28, 2021):

  • Unvaccinated employees are required to wear masks at all times during work hours.

Why do I have to wear a mask if I haven’t been vaccinated?

  • Vaccinations are a form of protection for you and others around you. 
  • Masks serve as a precautionary measure for those that are not yet vaccinated. 
  • If you have been medically advised to postpone getting a Covid-19 vaccine, then it is very important for you to wear a mask for protection.

How to reply if asked why you did/didn’t choose to receive the covid vaccine.

“It’s really just a personal preference. If you would like, I can have a pharmacist answer any questions you have about the vaccine.”
*Staff are not required to disclose any personal health information if they do not want to
