Employee Wellness

Flu season is just around the corner and MUSC Employee Health is preparing to fight this illness among employees.

The flu vaccine is available for Medical University Hospital Authority, MUSC, University Medical Associates, Sodexo and Crothall employees and volunteers. For fast and convenient service, employees are encouraged to receive the flu vaccine at one of the campuswide satellites hosted by Employee Health Services and Infection Control. Bring your MUSC ID badge and your MUSC ID number - Social Security numbers will no longer be used to verify compliance.
Students may obtain the vaccine from Student Health Services, however agency and other non-MUSC paid employees are not eligible. For faster service complete the consent form before you arrive (http://www.tinyurl.com/3t9kdmr) and bring with you for entry into the Express Line. Forms will be available at the administration site.

Satellite Schedule
Sept. 27: 7 a.m. to 4 p.m., Library Portico and outside of Ashley River Tower (ART) Chest Pain Center; Sept. 28: 7 a.m. to 4 p.m., Portico; Oct. 5: 11 a.m. to 1 p.m., Children's Hospital lobby; Oct. 6: 9 to 11 a.m., Harborview Office Tower, Room 910; Oct. 12: 11 a.m. to 1 p.m., outside ART cafeteria; Oct. 19: 11 a.m. to 1 p.m., Children's Hospital lobby; Nov. 9: 11 a.m. - 1 p.m., Children's Hospital lobby; Nov. 16: 11 a.m. - 1 p.m., Ashley River Tower cafeteria; and Nov. 30: 11 a.m. - 1 p.m., Children's Hospital lobby.

Remember, it takes about two weeks to build immunity.

Employees also may receive the flu vaccine at Employee Health Services' office, 57 Bee Street, Monday through Friday from 7:30 a.m. to 3:30 p.m., with faster service between 1 and 3 p.m.
