[MCOH-EH] Meningitis vaccination for healthcare workers

[Gwen Brachman]

In our hospital/clinics the consent for any procedure includes testing for Hep B, Hep C and HIV in the event of a BBP exposure to a health care worker.

I have a question regarding needlestick source patient testing. In your facility, do you have the source consent to testing for Hep B surface antigen and Hep C testing? Do you have the source sign a consent to have their Hep B surface antigen and Hep C tests results released to the recipient?

Thank you so much,
