The HSE publishes a document called 'managing infection risks when handling the deceased', which is a useful guide, they also include TB.
HI
Does anyone have a risk assessment that identifies what the mortuary workers require in way of vaccinations?
I know Hep B, what about hep A / tetanus?
Thanks in advance.
