Wearing a mask at health care facilities combined with getting your COVID-19 and influenza vaccinations is mandatory at Health PEI to protect yourself and others. For many health care workers, these precautionary measures are also personal. We want to hear why you mask at health care facilities and get your COVID-19 and influenza vaccinations.
Why do you vaccinate and mask?
Tell us your personal reason in a short selfie-video and you could win a $200 gift certificate from Mysa Nordic Spa and Resort.
How to enter
- Shoot a 30-second or shorter video on your phone explaining why you get vaccinated for COVID-19 and influenza and also wear a mask in health care settings. Please ensure no patients or other people who don’t work for Health PEI are in the background. (If you want to include a person who doesn’t work for Health PEI in your video, please contact HealthPEIweb@ihis.org. for a video release form.)
- Send your video in MP4 or Mov format to HealthPEIweb@ihis.org.
Your name will be entered in a monthly random draw for a $200 gift certificate to Mysa Nordi Spa and Resort. Draws will be held on Dec. 16, Jan. 15, Feb. 14, and Mar. 14. Winners will be notified by email.
All videos will be shared on this page. Select videos will be shared in the Vital Insight and on Health PEI’s Facebook and LinkedIn channels.
This contest is open to all staff, physicians, interns/students, volunteers and contract workers with Health PEI.
Contest closes at noon on March 14.
Where to get vaccinated
You can get vaccinated at a staff immunization clinic, community pharmacy, your health care provider’s office or a Public Health Nursing community clinic. If you are vaccinated in the community, your healthcare provider must complete a validation form and return it to HPEIEmployeeHealth@ihis.org.
Where to mask
As of October 10, universal masking is mandatory for all direct patient care. Wear a surgical mask when within two meters of any patient/resident or client. For more information, see the CEO memo.
