We perform on all of our Ishihara on all employees. It is easy and does not cost anything so it is easier just to do it. Currently we have no next steps. Interested to hear from the group how they approach. 
We have had nurses be excluded from trial on new equipment that required color vision testing for participation.

You don't often get email from melissa.griffin3@bhsi.com. Learn why this is important

Are your facilities completing a color deficiency screening (Ishihara) on patient facing candidates?

If they have some degree of deficiency what are the next steps? 

 

Thanks
