Annual Resource Fair and Immunization Clinic Returns to OHIO

Ohio University’s Human Resources department is once again hosting its highly anticipated Faculty and Staff Resource Fair and Immunization Clinic on Wednesday, October 1. This annual event, open exclusively to OHIO employees, will take place from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. at the Convocation Center on the Athens Campus.

Designed to support the health and well-being of university employees, the event brings together a wide range of resources, vendors, and health services in one convenient location. It serves as both an informative and engaging opportunity for faculty and staff to connect with university departments and community partners.

Comprehensive Immunization Services Offered

This year, Human Resources is pleased to welcome back Kroger Pharmacy, which will once again facilitate the on-site Immunization Clinic. Available vaccines include:

  • Flu
  • COVID-19
  • Pneumonia
  • Shingles
  • Respiratory Syncytial Virus (RSV)
  • Hepatitis A
  • Hepatitis B

These immunizations are vital tools in maintaining employee health, especially during peak illness seasons. Participants are encouraged to consult with their healthcare providers regarding their eligibility for specific vaccines and to bring their insurance information to ensure coverage.

Engaging Exhibitors and Resource Tables

The Resource Fair will feature a diverse group of exhibitors, including representatives from various Ohio University departments, retirement providers, and other employee benefit groups. These tables will offer information on services ranging from financial planning and wellness programs to professional development opportunities.

Attendees will have the chance to speak directly with representatives, gather brochures and promotional materials, and learn more about the many resources available to them as members of the OHIO community.

Exciting Incentives and Door Prizes

To add a bit of fun to the informative atmosphere, door prize drawings will be held at select exhibitor tables. Employees who visit these tables and engage with the representatives will be entered into drawings for a variety of prizes, offering an extra incentive to explore all the fair has to offer.

How to Register

Participation in the event is free for all OHIO employees, but registration is required to attend. Employees are encouraged to sign up in advance to streamline check-in and ensure adequate supplies and staffing for the immunization clinic.

To register and find additional details about the event, employees can visit the official Ohio University Human Resources page. Registration not only helps with planning but also allows participants to receive reminders and important updates prior to the event.

Supporting Employee Health and Engagement

Ohio University’s commitment to employee wellness and engagement is at the forefront of this annual event. By offering both health services and professional resources under one roof, the university aims to foster a supportive and informed workforce.

The Human Resources team looks forward to welcoming faculty and staff to this year’s Resource Fair and Immunization Clinic.
