RCS is clarifying TB requirements for AFHs. All new hires must be tested for TB within 3 days of hire. Employees with a prior positive TB test or treatment history do not need repeat testing, but documentation and risk assessment must be maintained. For those who received the BCG vaccine, a TB blood test (IGRA) is recommended. Providers are responsible for infection control, ensuring evaluations are complete, and monitoring staff for TB symptoms. Read the Dear Provider letter below.https://www.dshs.wa.gov/sites/default/files/ALTSA/rcs/documents/multiple/025-045%20CLARIFYING%20TUBERCULOSIS%20%28TB%29%20REQUIREMENTS%20FOR%20ADULT%20FAMILY%20HOMES%20%28AFHs%29.pdf
