Dear All
Wonder if any of you can be of help – as you will all
be aware the most recent health clearance document for healthcare workers asks
that those new to healthcare are screened or can provide evidence of TB
immunity at pre employment.
If an individual does not have a visible BCG scar or has not
provided documentary evidence of prior vaccination or positive skin test
– are you carrying our mantoux Skin testing prior to passing fit for
employment?
I look forward to hearing what others are doing.
