[MCOH-EH] Meningitis vaccination for healthcare workers

[Seufert, Diana]

We ask them to consent to HCV ab, LFTs and HIV AG/AB.
If the exposed employee is immune to HepB we don’t test the source for HepB.
The source does sign a “release of information form” so it is understood that the information will be shared with the exposed employee.

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,
