Yes, we do.  The managers identify who is at risk and those employees fill out a medical questionnaire, have labwork drawn and the results are evaluated on a yearly basis.  If they need to be seen, they are referred to our provider.

Subject: [MCOH-EH] Chemo Medical Surveillance

 

I am an Employee Health Nurse at a hospital in Oregon. Do any of you do medical surveillance for staff administering or handling chemo drugs?

If so, can you please describe your policy. If not, can you please provide reasons why.

Thank you in advance for your answer.
