ARSD 44:67:04:02. Employee health program

The abortion facility shall have an employee health program for the protection of the patients. All personnel shall be evaluated by a licensed health professional for freedom from reportable communicable disease which poses a threat to others before assignment to duties or within 14 days after employment including an assessment of previous vaccinations and tuberculin skin tests. The facility may not allow anyone with a communicable disease, during the period of communicability, to work in a capacity that would allow spread of the disease. Personnel absent from duty because of a reportable communicable disease which may endanger the health of patients and fellow employees may not return to duty until they are determined by a physician or the physician's designee to no longer have the disease in a communicable stage.
