Nursing homes are required to report healthcare personnel flu vaccination data on an annual basis through the National Healthcare Safety Network (NHSN). This requirement was first implemented last year, with all data for the 2022/2023 flu season required by May 15, 2023. This year, a single report including the flu vaccination status of all healthcare personnel working in your nursing home at least one day between October 1, 2023, and March 31, 2024, is required by May 15, 2024. The NHSN Vaccination Team is providing three Office Hours sessions to review how to report this data. Sessions will be held in February, March, and April and nursing homes may register to attend one of these sessions below.
