Guidelines for Immunizations

Hepatitis B

• Requires documentation of positive Anti-HBS surface antibodies (10 or greater), which requires a blood sample, for Hepatitis B or documentation of informed refusal (available in CKNB 201).
• In the case of a negative surface antibody/titer, documentation is required of the second booster series of the Hepatitis B vaccine. Follow up with serum surface antibody level as noted above.
• If  booster series results in a negative serum surface antibody (non-responder), documentation of such is required with a signed waiver and he/she will be allowed to continue clinical. Further vaccine is not recommended.

Mumps/Measles/Rubella

• Proof of immunity in the form of a positive titer (blood sample) is required OR evidence of 2 MMR vaccines given at least 4 weeks apart on or after the first birthday regardless of birth date.
• Do not vaccinate women who are pregnant or who plan to become pregnant within the next 4 weeks; if a student is pregnant and susceptible to measles, vaccinate as early in postpartum period. If a pregnant woman does not show proof of immunity or vaccine history, they are not allowed to continue clinical experiences.

Varicella

• Proof of 2 doses of vaccine OR a positive titer (blood sample) is required for participation in clinical.
