Students who lack protection against measles may not carry out educational placement in health care

The Sahlgrenska Academy has widely informed its students, due to the measles outbreak in healthcare. According to the health care guidelines, it is not permitted to work in care if you are not protected from measles, either because you already had measles or through vaccination. These guidelines also include students who carry out educational placement (VFU). Students who are unsure whether they are protected against measles and who are currently carrying out VFU have been asked to contact the course teacher and course administrator. If you as a faculty staff have questions, please contact the Head of Education Annelie Hyllner, annelie.hyllner@sahlgrenska.gu.se.
