We give a Td booster.  If someone is requesting a Tdap due to pregnancy, we refer to PCP.  Do you know the rationale for family practice providers giving a 2nd TdaP?

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.
