## EMT Program Communicable Diseases Hepatitis B Vaccine Acknowledgement and Release Form

I  hereby  acknowledge  that  I  have  received  and  reviewed  the  information  provided  regarding  communicable diseases including Hepatitis B and HIV.  I understand that  I assume the risk of infection from communicable diseases, including Hepatitis B and HIV (AIDS) from my clinical experience.

I have received information and have had my questions answered about the Hepatitis B vaccine.  I understand that receiving the vaccine is highly recommended, but not required, for persons such as health care workers who have contact with blood/bloody secretions.

I also understand that, should I elect to receive the Hepatitis B vaccine, it is MY RESPONSIBILITY to pay the cost of the series of three (3) injections required.  I understand that all medical bills associated with contracting a communicable disease during my clinical education are my responsibility and Delta College has no obligation to pay my medical expenses.

I  hereby release Delta College, its employees, teaching affiliates, and members of its Board of Trustees from any and all  claims  and  actions  for  personal  injury  or  death  resulting  from  communicable  diseases  contracted while a student at Delta College, whether arising out of clinical experience or otherwise.
