[MCOH-EH] n95 mask fit questions

[Mora, Jennifer]

Whiney,

Welcome to occupational health!  I was new to occupational health last year.  It is a great field to be in!

We do annual N95 fit testing every year at our annual skills day.  The skills day is mostly for CNAs, LPNs, and RNs, but other staff comes through as well for flu shots.  This is when they capture employees that need fit testing done and it is pretty efficient.

Subject: [MCOH-EH] n95 mask fit questions

Hello,
I recently transitioned into the occupational health role for our hospital.  I am looking for suggestions on the best way to get the annual n95 mask fittings caught up and a good system to keep ensure continued compliance.  Any ideas or suggestions are greatly appreciated.  Currently employees are supposed to report to employee health to have their annual fittings and TST done on their annual hire date.  However, compliance is quiet low.   Also, I am looking for ideas on the best way to perform mass fittings for large groups, as I am the only health nurse for the facility.
Thank you in advance!
