TB Screening for Work, School, and Other Requirements
When a school, employer, program, or healthcare requirement asks for TB screening, La Familia Health Clinic PLLC can provide the TB skin test listed on the Services page.
The content should remind patients that this test requires follow-up after it is placed. Instead of hard-coding timing language, the page can tell patients to return during the exact reading window provided by the clinic.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
How many visits are involved?
A TB skin test requires the placement visit and a separate return visit so the clinic can read the test.
What if I have had a positive TB test before?
Tell the team before the test is placed. Prior results can change what type of screening or documentation is appropriate.
Can I return whenever it is convenient?
No. The clinic will give you a specific window for the reading, so plan your schedule around that instruction.
What if my employer or school gave me a form?
Bring it. The team can review what documentation is requested and complete appropriate sections.
