General announcements

H1N1 flu vaccine update
  More H1N1 flu vaccine is arriving at UMHS this week, and so the list of patients and faculty/staff who may now receive the vaccine is able to expand. Here is an updated list of the groups that may now be vaccinated: www.med.umich.edu/u/flu/pdf/factsh1n1.pdf.

If you are a member of one of these groups, please seek vaccination as soon as possible so that we can assess the vaccine supply and determine if there's enough remaining to allow more groups to be added to the list. Injectable vaccine is still in short supply and will be given only to patients, faculty and staff in the groups identified who do not qualify for nasal vaccine, while supplies last.

Please note that Occupational Health will continue to offer H1N1 vaccination to faculty and staff in the qualifying groups on the third floor of the Med Inn from 7 a.m. - 4 p.m. Monday through Friday.

For more information on flu-related issues at UMHS, visit www.med.umich.edu/u/flu.

Space heaters no longer recommended for purchase
  In the interest of safety and environmental sustainability, space heaters are no longer recommended for purchase. This includes the oil filled space heater that was approved for use in non-patient care areas in the past. For faculty and staff who find the need for additional warmth, Safety Management Services recommends the purchase of workstation warmers, which operate at safer temperatures and use far less electricity. At this time, staff may continue to use existing oil-filled space heaters. Space heaters and workstation warmers are NOT permitted in patient care areas or in sleeping areas for staff.
