Portland Community Squash COVID-19 Vaccination Mandate for Adult Members and Guests (18 years and older)
 
Purpose:
Vaccination is a vital tool to reduce the presence and severity of COVID-19 cases in our community and the nation as a whole. Portland Community Squash has adopted this policy on mandatory vaccination to safeguard the health of our collective community from the hazards of COVID-19. The following policy was shaped by OSHA (Occupational Safety and Health Administration) standards and approved by the PCS Executive Committee.
 
Scope:
This Mandatory COVID-19 Vaccination Policy applies to all adult members and guests (18 years and older). The policy does not apply to youth under 18 or non-participating visitors (such as adults picking up students).
 
All adult members and guests covered by this policy are required to be fully vaccinated as a term and condition for entering the facility. Adult members and guests are considered fully vaccinated two weeks after completing primary vaccination with a COVID-19 vaccine, with, if applicable, at least the minimum recommended interval between doses. For example, this includes two weeks after a second dose in a two-dose series, such as the Pfizer or Moderna vaccines, two weeks after a single-dose vaccine, such as the Johnson & Johnson vaccine, or two weeks after the second dose of any combination of two doses of different COVID-19 vaccines as part of one primary vaccination series. All adult members and guests are required to provide proof of vaccination and sign the PCS COVID-19 Waiver.
 
Overview and General Information:
All Portland Community Squash adult members and guests must have at least one shot by February 1, 2022 and be fully vaccinated no later than March 15, 2022 to participate in any activities within the facility.

Vaccination Status and Acceptable Forms of Proof of Vaccination:
All vaccinated individuals are required to provide proof of COVID-19 vaccination, regardless of where they received vaccination. Proof of vaccination status can be uploaded to the PCS COVID-19 Waiver.

Acceptable proof of vaccination status is:   

1.    The record of immunization from a healthcare provider or pharmacy; 
2.    A copy of the COVID-19 Vaccination Record Card; 
3.    A copy of medical records documenting the vaccination;
4.    A copy of immunization records from a public health, state, or tribal immunization information system; or 
5.    A copy of any other official documentation that contains the type of vaccine administered, date(s) of administration, and the name of the healthcare professional(s) or clinic site(s) administering the vaccine(s). 

Proof of vaccination generally should include the adult member or guest’s name, the type of vaccine administered, the date(s) of administration, and the name of the healthcare professional(s) or clinic site(s) that administered the vaccine. In some cases, state immunization records may not include one or more of these data fields, such as clinic site; in those circumstances, Portland Community Squash will still accept the state immunization record as acceptable proof of vaccination. 

Confidentiality and Privacy:
All medical information collected from individuals, including vaccination information, test results, and any other information obtained as a result of testing, will be treated in accordance with applicable laws and policies on confidentiality and privacy.
