UPDATE ON TB TESTING PROCESS

A nurse has to administer the risk as-

sessment questionnaire in person. This

began on August 31st. Our district

nurse (Tina), will be available the last

Wednesday of every month from 3-

4pm in the student services office. Any-

one needing a TB test can drop in dur-

ing that time for her to administer the

questionnaire. Please come in when

you get your first reminder 3 months

before it expires, so that you have

enough time to obtain a test should

you not pass the questionnaire. The
