Vaccination Information and Resources
The public health order dated September 28th, 2021 issued by the California Department of Public Health (CDPH) requires certain IHSS providers to be fully vaccinated with the COVID-19 vaccine by November 30, 2021.
On December 22nd, 2021 the State Public Health Officer issued an amended order, which requires all IHSS providers to obtain a vaccine booster shot by February 1st or no later than 15 days after the recommended timeframe for receiving the booster does. The deadline to acquire the vaccine booster has been extended from February 1, 2022 to March 1, 2022.
This order applies to all IHSS Providers, unless:
- You live in the same household as the IHSS Recipient(s) you are working for.
- You are providing IHSS services to a family member outside of your household and no one else.
- You have received an official vaccine exemption (see Exemptions below)
This order does not apply to IHSS Recipients. IHSS Recipients DO need to verify the vaccination status of their providers, or approve any exemption requests.
Exemptions:
- You may be exempted from the vaccine requirement if you have a qualified medical reason or for your religious beliefs:
- You must provide your recipient a signed copy of the COVID-19 Vaccination Exemption Form. You may be required to provide additional information. Click here to learn more.
