Hello everyone!

This questions came out over Western region TB Network from Heidi Behm and didn’t get any traction. Let’s see if anyone here has some advice to share.

Questions: Does anyone have a policy about holding or restraining children in order to give medication or place a TST? If yes, please share it with me when possible.

Happy week!
