Management of HIV-infected healthcare workers

Department of Health guidance currently restricts healthcare workers infected with HIV from performing invasive clinical procedures, known as exposure prone procedures.

This consultation asks for your views on recommendations from an independent tripartite working group to relax the restrictions on HIV-infected healthcare workers if certain conditions are met.

The tripartite working group consists of experts including chairs and members of the:

• Expert Advisory Group on AIDS
• UK Advisory Panel for Healthcare Workers Infected with Blood-borne Viruses
• Advisory Group on Hepatitis
