[MCOH-EH] Medical clearance for Ebola PPE

[Foley MD, Deborah]

Is anyone developing a medical evaluation tool to help determine an employee's ability to work in the PPE recommended for Ebola patient care? We think that a nurse may be in the gear for up to a 4 hour shift. I am considering the long form respiratory questionnaire as a possibility. What are others thinking?

Thanks,
