Our Corporate Health Immunization Program provides TB testing and Hepatitis B immunizations. We offer convenient appointment scheduling at our Wyomissing location (1170 Berkshire Boulevard, Wyomissing, PA 19610). We also offer the opportunity for companies to hold an on-site TB Testing and/or Hepatitis B immunization clinic at their worksite for their employees.
TB Testing
The Mantoux tuberculin skin test (TST) is the standard method of determining whether a person is infected with Mycobacterium tuberculosis. The TST is performed by injecting 0.1ml of tuberculin purified protein derivative (PPD) into the inner surface of the forearm. The skin test reaction should be read between 48 and 72 hours after administration.
Hepatitis B Immunization
The Hepatitis B virus is spread through contact with the blood and body fluids of an infected person. Hepatitis B immunization involves a three dose series. The first dose is given, followed by the second dose approximately one month later. The series is completed with the third dose which is given approximately 6 months after the initial dose.
Our goal is to provide a safe and healthy work environment!
