A.1 QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS

1. Is a NEBB certified technician sufficient to fulfill the NEBB requirement?

Yes. if the final report has a certification stamp.

There are three (3) recognized certifications: NEEB, AABC, TAB-ANAB.

2. Must the NEBB certification holder be present during all testing?

NO, the report must be certified and stamped. See answer to number 1.

3. For unoccupied isolation rooms, is it expected that no patient be in the isolation room during testing? If so, what is the protocol for gaining access to the room once vacant? Is it the expectation that a technicial will be on call to test a room when available? (This is the question that is most important. We have to know if return trips are involved)

Unoccupied rooms are not a problem you can enter/ occupied rooms, you can gain access from the Charge nurse when using the proper PPE. Or extra trips could be necessary.

4. Will this require a NEBB cleanroom performance certificate or a fume hood performance certificate?

NEEB clean room or equivalent certification. See answer to number 1.
