SB 659 School board employees; testing for blood-borne pathogens.
Introduced by: Frank M. Ruff | all patrons ... notes | add to my profiles
SUMMARY AS PASSED SENATE: (all summaries)
School board employees; consent to testing for blood-borne pathogens. Adds school board employees who are exposed to persons in a manner that may transmit HIV or hepatitis B or C to those individuals deemed to have consented to testing for infection with HIV or hepatitis B or C viruses and the release of test results to the exposed person. In addition, persons, including students, directly exposed to the body fluids of a school board employee are also deemed to have consented to testing for infection with these viruses and the release of the test results to the exposed school board employee. If the person to be tested is a minor, consent for the testing shall be obtained from the parent, guardian or person standing in loco parentis. If consent is withheld, the school board may petition the juvenile and domestic relations district court for an order requiring the testing. Procedures for teacher exposure to student body fluids are set forth in § 22.1-271.3, which directs school boards to ensure that school personnel having contact with students receive training in the prevention and effects of blood-borne pathogens. This measure mirrors current requirements for health care providers and law-enforcement personnel.
