[MCOH-EH] RFT

[TePoel, Debra A]

Could we possibly get a copy of the questionnaire you use also to make sure ours contains similar information?

Thanks again,
Deb

We do annual mandatories for training.  I was sending out the questionnaires  annually but last month I went to an OSHA seminar and asked how often It was required. The presenter which was a field inspector took my information and ask that I send him the form I was using and he would get me an answer.  I  received confirmation via e-mail that every three years would be sufficient.

Cathy,
How do you annually manage training for the PAPR's?
Also do you have employees complete an annual or baseline medical clearance questionnaire?

Thanks,

We switched from N95 to PAPR"S in 2009. We only fit test those units that cannot use the PAPR"S due to sterility such as the OR which must use the N95 mask.

________________________________

I wanted to submit a question in regards to Respiratory Fit testing:

We are a very large organization and considering switching from N-95's to PAPRs for active cases of TB in the hospital.

Are any organizations currently using the N-95's and considering moving to PAPR's, or have already made the switch?

How does your organization determine who gets fit tested or instructed on the PAPR?  We are finding that most employees, when asked to put the N-95 mask on, aren't  putting it on correctly, giving the employee a false sense of protection, and thinking of switching to PAPRs.
