Hepatitis B Vaccine and First Aid Providers

This section applies to employees who are designated to render first aid assistance but this

assistance is not their primary work assignment. The names of first aid providers at this

facility are listed below (and in the Exposure Determination Section):

Provide training which includes:

• Information emphasizing the safety, benefits, effectiveness, method of administration and

availability of vaccine

• Knowledge of Appendix A and the Declination statement

This facility has decided to (must check one):

_____ offer free of charge* hepatitis B vaccination to the first aid provider after involvement

with blood.

_____ offer free of charge* pre-exposure vaccination to employees

*Note: Employee will be informed that vaccine is free prior to offering vaccine.

In the event of a first aid incident where blood or OPIM are present, the employee must report

to _________________________ (specify name) and review the circumstances. If PPE (i.e.

gloves) are used and blood or OPIM not touched, no exposure occurred. If gloves are not used

and a true exposure occurred (blood or OPIM gets inside the body by means such as blood

touching an open sore or skin with dermatitis or a puncture wound by a sharp object that has

blood on it), then a report with the name of the first aider, date, time, and description of the

incident should be filled out.

This facility will ensure that any first aider that desires the vaccine series after involvement

with blood will receive it within 24 hours.

This facility provides training to first aid providers about reporting involvement with blood

and exposure incidents.
