Latent TB toolkit
Access, testing and treatment: A toolkit for new entrant latent tuberculosis programmes by Public Health England, NHS England and TB Alert. The toolkit provides guidance for planners and providers on how to maximise the uptake of latent TB testing and treatment and make programmes patient-focused to ensure maximum retention of patients along the pathway. For each of the three stages of Access, Testing and Treatment, it identifies issues and challenges which need to be considered, strategies for addressing them, and resources to support the process. It also provides guidance on using social marketing and behaviour change theory to understand and more effectively reach people within eligible communities.
The toolkit includes a PDF of the 56 page toolkit and introductory PowerPoint presentation which are available for download together as a zip file.
