    Author: Hoffmann KK, Weber DJ, Rutala WA.
    Journal: AAOHN J; 1991 Apr; 39(4):167-81. PubMed ID: 2069603.
    Abstract:
    A well organized employee health service is a key component of an effective infection control program. All health care providers should be immune to mumps, measles, rubella, tetanus, and polio. Hepatitis B vaccine should be offered to all workers who have contact with blood. Employees with signs and symptoms of infectious diseases should be evaluated by Employee Health and follow work restrictions. Employees with exposure to communicable diseases should be evaluated for prophylaxis.
