[Sampson, Deborah]

We do as well- especially important for our Lab folks because of CAP requirements on survey.

We test all employees at time of pre-placement evaluation using Ishihara plates.

Good morning group- We have traditionally only vision/color blind tested our employees working with lasers.  More questions are arising in my organization, that I hope you can help me answer. 

	Do you conduct color blind/vision testing ?  

	If yes, what populations are tested?

	What testing tools do you use? 

	How often are they tested?

	Our house wide computerized charting has red and green flag alerts, any thoughts on color blind testing all populations using EMRs? 

Thanks,
