[MCOH-EH] Tb screening in students

[Morelli, Karen J]

Thank you, Erika.  Do you accept an annual test or do the students have to repeat before their rotation at your facility?

Our students/contract staff/travelers/etc. must meet the same tb screening requirements as the employees. We are a medium risk facility per CDC criteria and therefore they must provide documentation of either a 2-step or an IGRA.

Thanks, Erika

I am wondering what your facility requires for Tb screening for students.  Our system is trying to systematize how we all onboard new hires/travelers/locums/students.  I appreciate any information/guidance that you have.
Thank you,
Karen
