Hep is mandatory for anyone working with patients....blood...human cells...etc

List,

I am interested to if there are any health systems out there that require/recommend meningitis vaccination for ER and/or EMS, in addition to the microbiologists identified by the ACIP? Do any of you mandate or require Hepatitis B vaccination for employees who are at risk of exposure? I am wondering if there are policies out there that go beyond the Hepatitis B OSHA standard.  Anyone willing to share their policies?

Thank you in advance for your input!
