Hello all
Just a quick question(s) for all those medical professionals, CFR's, first aiders, wilderness medics etc.
Do you think you should have the Hep B vaccination, does the organisation you belong to have a policy relating to it and if so what is it?
The reason for asking is that I am a Community Responder for my regional Ambulance service. They originally didn't provide for the Hep B vaccine, a swift policy change saw every responder requiring one and them providing it, but then a further policy change and we responders don't need it I suspect this is cost related as with all trusts ours is under serious budget constraints and at a £110 per vaccine and 1000 responders this is a heavy burden!
Anyway I'm just canvassing opinion and interested in what happens elsewhere.
Cheers
