Need to Know!!
April 14, 2009Required TB Tests and Code of Conduct manuals were handed out during April’s meeting. There are still a few volunteers who have not had their TB Test completed for 2009. Also, we are still lacking quite a few volunteers who have signed and returned their Code of Conduct Manuals signature sheets. Please make arrangements to complete both soon!
Attention Volunteers .
Your annual TB Skin Test will be administered before April’s Monthly meeting. Monica Baxter, RN, Saint Mary’s Infection Control and Employee Health nurse will be set up at 12:30 p.m. prior to April’s meeting. We encourage every active volunteer to attend. If you are not able, arrangements will need to be made to have your test administered.
