This is somewhat of a hot potato for us as we do not have the funds to outsource nor have not been able to increase our budget to incorporate this responsibility.

We have paired with our clinical educators to incorporate the fit testing into their clinical orientation. Employee Health continues to collect and review the medical questionnaire and fit test all other departments that do not have an assigned clinical educator or attend a clinical orientation.

Who is responsible for fit testing within your organization?

Do you outsource to a vendor? If so, who do you use?

If internal, what resources are dedicated to the program?

As always

Thank you
