Healthcare worker TB screening guidance continues to evolve and staying current matters.
Although tuberculosis (TB) incidence remains relatively low in many countries, healthcare workers face a unique dual risk. They may have acquired infection earlier in life, or possibly through workplace exposure. While working with vulnerable patients, they can unknowingly transmit TB to patients, colleagues or their community. Early identification of TB infection (TBI) is critical to preventing progression to active disease and reducing transmission risk in healthcare settings.
In this focused 60-minute webinar we’ll explore why TB screening remains a key part of occupational health programs, and what healthcare teams need to know now.
