Webinar Recording: Measles Preparedness in Healthcare Settings
On August 5, SCHA hosted an insightful webinar led by the SC Department of Public Health (DPH)’s Dr. Anna Kathryn Birch which focused on measles prevention and immunization protocols across healthcare environments. The session provided a timely review of measles transmission and symptoms, as well as the latest recommendations for vaccination and post-exposure prophylaxis, mitigation measures, and testing.
The full webinar recording is available here, and the slides are available here. We encourage all of our members to revisit their immunization policies and ensure comprehensive coverage across all roles, including mobile and contract staff.
Thanks to Dr. Burch and everyone at DPH for sharing our commitment to protect, promote and improve the health and well-being of all South Carolinians!
