LR 811
Item 1

 
1. An adequate, updated and consistent definition of "health care
facility";

 
2. Consistent wording and requirements for health care
workers seeking exemption from one or more immunizations,
including consistency with federal Occupational Safety and Health
Administration requirements for hepatitis B; and

 
3. Shifting certain disease- and vaccine-specific
requirements to rulemaking instead of law. This last change is
necessary due to the rapid development of vaccines and vaccine
recommendations.
