Health Reviews

Health Review for Animal Handlers - Employees in certain job categories are required to undergo a health review at the beginning of their job and at periodic intervals. This policy includes Duke personnel who work with animals.

Placement Health Review - The placement health review is a required process for selected job positions at Duke University based on federal, state and University regulations and policies. 

Tuberculosis Screening

A tuberculosis screening must be performed by an RN, MD, PA, or NP other than yourself. Results must be read 48-72 hours after placement of the tuberculin test. If there is any redness, swelling, or induration present the employee MUST BE SEEN IN EOHW as soon as possible.

Please complete the tuberculosis questionnaire if you cannot take the TB skin test and this has been documented by EOHW.
