The Department agrees that EAB (EMTs and Paramedics) and Apparatus Division personnel may come into contact with various contagious diseases in the performance of their duties. If the employee has come into contact with a patient and/or equipment used in treating or transporting a patient who has been diagnosed as having a contagious disease, if there is a known vaccination, the Department will take steps to see that the employee receives the vaccination, if necessary. The Department will continue to investigate the feasibility of establishing a vaccination program.
