As long as they have had 1 TdaP, we do
not repeat.
However, I review travel RN documents
who have all requirements completed at other locations and I see lots of
repeated TdaP vaccinations.
I see a tendency to repeat a TdaP when
a Td is due.
These documents are from clinics across
the US and typically not from a hospital health clinic.

[MCOH-EH] TdaP
re-vaccination for non-pregnant employees

When an employee (new or existing) had
a TdaP 10+ years ago, do you give a Td or another TdaP? If just a
Td, what about those in obstetrics or the ED? I know CDC says Td,
but I’m seeing a lot of family practice providers giving a 2nd
TdaP. Thank you for any guidance you can provide.
