Before starting employment at Lutheran Augustana Center, every employee is required to have a physical examination and drug screen. For continued employment, a physical examination and/or health screen is required annually, on or before your anniversary date of employment. The purpose of the examination is to assure the protection of Augustana’s residents whose care is entrusted to us.

During the health examination, a PPD test or chest x-ray will be administered. Titers for Measles, Mumps, Rubella, Varicella and Hepatitis screening are performed and immunizations are given if necessary. Augustana offers the Influenza vaccine annually and, the Pneumococcal polysaccharide vaccine (PPV) is offered once to all employees.

In accordance with applicable federal, state and local laws and orders, Lutheran Augustana Center provides equal employment opportunities (EEO) to all employees and applicants for employment without regard to race, creed, color, national origin, citizenship status, political belief, sex, age, disability, marital status, sexual orientation or status as a covered veteran. This policy applies to all terms and conditions of employment, including, but not limited to, hiring, placement, promotion, termination, layoff, recall, transfer, leaves of absence, compensation, and training.

Lutheran Augustana Center expressly prohibits any form of unlawful employee harassment based on race, creed, color, national origin, citizenship status, political belief, sex, age, disability, marital status or sexual orientation.
