When an employee or prospective employee has a communicable disease that may result in transmission, they may not perform employment duties until:

A replacement is found
The department is notified
The employee receives a vaccination
The facility makes safe accommodations to prevent transmission

The correct answer is: The facility makes safe accommodations to prevent transmission

This is because it is not enough to just inform the department or find a replacement when an employee has a communicable disease. This could potentially put others at risk of contracting the disease. Additionally, getting a vaccination does not immediately prevent the transmission of the disease. It takes time for the body to build up immunity. Therefore, the facility must make safe accommodations to prevent transmission before the employee can return to performing employment duties.
