Vaccine policy.
Last updated: November 10, 2026
This policy explains how Briyah Health Navar PLLC, doing business as Briya Health ("Briya Health," "we," "us" and "our"), handles COVID-19 vaccination for our team and our patients. It applies to our in-home visits in Brooklyn, NY, and Las Vegas and North Las Vegas, NV, and to our video visits.
In short: We recommend COVID-19 vaccination for team members who provide in-person care, but we do not require it. We do not require patients to be vaccinated to get care from us. We follow all vaccine requirements that apply to us by law, including hepatitis B vaccine offers for team members who may be exposed to blood.
Our team
Briya Health recommends that team members who see patients in person stay up to date on COVID-19 vaccination, along with the other vaccines the CDC recommends for health care workers: influenza (every year), hepatitis B, measles-mumps-rubella (MMR), chickenpox (varicella) and tetanus-diphtheria-whooping cough (Tdap). Vaccination is a personal choice, and we do not require it for our team.
If team members share their vaccination records with us, we keep them private. Federal law treats vaccination records as confidential medical information, so we store them apart from regular personnel files.
Vaccines required by law
Some vaccine rules come from the law, not from our own policy. Under federal workplace safety rules (OSHA's Bloodborne Pathogens Standard), employers must offer the hepatitis B vaccine, at no cost, to employees who could be exposed to blood or other infectious materials at work. This rule applies in both New York and Nevada. Briya Health follows this rule. Eligible team members are offered the hepatitis B vaccine series at no cost, and they may decline in writing.
We also follow any other vaccine requirements that apply to our practice under federal, New York or Nevada law. As of the date above, we are not aware of any federal, New York or Nevada law that requires COVID-19 vaccination for our team or for our patients. If those requirements change, we will update this policy.
Our patients
We do not require patients to show proof of vaccination, or to be vaccinated, to book a visit or get care. If you feel sick, or someone in your home has symptoms of COVID-19, please tell us before your visit so we can plan the safest way to care for you. In some cases, your provider may suggest a video visit or a later date.
Protecting patients and staff
To help keep everyone safe during visits:
- Team members who feel sick stay home and do not do in-person visits.
- Providers follow current public health guidance on infection control.
- You may ask your provider to wear a mask during your visit.
Changes to this policy
Public health guidance can change over time. We may update this policy when it does. The date at the top of this page shows when it was last updated. We will share a more detailed policy here in the future.
