The new Public Health Order issued December 22, 2021 by the California Department of Public Health (CDPH) requires certain IHSS and WPCS providers to be fully vaccinated and boosted with the COVID-19 vaccine by March 1, 2022.

The Public Health Order states those eligible for the vaccine booster must obtain the shot by March 1, 2022. IHSS providers not yet eligible for boosters must get their shot no later than 15 days after the recommended time frame above for receiving the booster dose. If you live with your recipient(s) and/or provide services to a family member(s), and provide services to no one else, you are not impacted by this Public Health Order.
