Free Flu Vaccinations for Sussex Staff
The University is committed to supporting the wellbeing of its staff. At this time of year, many staff will be contacted by their NHS service provider to get their free seasonal flu vaccinations. The flu vaccine is given free on the NHS to adults who:
- are 65 and over
- have certain health conditions
- are pregnant
- are in long-stay residential care
- receive a carer's allowance, or are the main carer for an older or disabled person who may be at risk if you get sick
- live with someone who is more likely to get a severe infection due to a weakened immune system.
More infrormation about who is eligible can be found on the NHS website.
There will be some staff who are not eligible for a free flu vaccination. In these circumstances the University will help staff receive a vaccination free of charge.
