6.6.E. Bloodborne Pathogen (BBP) Standard and Vaccination Programs

(For Adjunct Clinical Faculty who provide clinical care at Stanford Health Care or Lucile Packard Children’s Hospital)

The California Bloodborne Pathogen (BBP) Standard requires that an Adjunct Clinical Faculty member, who has been determined to come into contact with human blood and/or other potentially infectious materials (OPIM), participate in an initial training and an annual, update training session for as long as he or she remains exposed to those materials.  In addition, the Adjunct Clinical Faculty member is required to either be vaccinated with the Hepatitis B vaccine within 10 working days of his or her initial assignment or sign a declination statement if he or she chooses not to be vaccinated.
