These are our state mandated TB test requirements for volunteers:
- If you are a new volunteer and HAVE had a TB test in the last year from a job etc. and can give us a copy of the paperwork, you will NOT need to do a TB test with Mission Hospice.
- If you are a new volunteer and have NOT had a TB test in the last year, you will need to do TWO tests (one week apart).
- If you are an existing patient visit volunteer you only need to do ONE test per year.
- Positive TB tests require a chest x-ray (which we will arrange for you) unless you have proof of a chest x-ray within the past 5 years.
- No TB test needed for office volunteers.
All TB tests are performed by a Mission Hospice LVN and read by an RN here at our office. Please CONTACT us in advance to schedule.
Tests are available 8am – 5pm / Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday and Friday.
