Need a training video for your healthcare workers on OSHA bloodborne pathogens? If so – this video is for you!
Bloodborne pathogens are a leading risk factor in many workplace settings. However, front-line health care personnel stand the highest risk of exposure. As a result of this widespread risk, OSHA requirements governing bloodborne pathogen training are very stringent. In order to address this need, we have developed this comprehensive bloodborne pathogen safety training curriculum specifically meant for healthcare and medical staff of any kind.
Designed specifically for those in a healthcare environment, this Healthcare Worker Bloodborne Pathogens Training Program is designed to teach healthcare workers the ins and outs of avoiding the dangers of bloodborne pathogens. With diseases like HIV and hepatitis being spread primarily through blood and other bodily fluids, taking special precautions is necessary for healthcare workers who risk exposure on a daily basis. This complete training package is specifically designed to help your organization maintain OSHA compliance so your workers stay safe.
Topics in this training program include the handling of bodily fluid-contaminated items, handling needles, protective clothing, and other important factors:
- What is a bloodborne pathogen, and how can medical staff protect themselves from exposure?
- What is the incidence rate of hepatitis, HIV, and other bodily fluid exchange diseases among the medical care worker community?
- A discussion of how, specifically in the healthcare sector, bloodborne pathogens are often transmitted parenterally or by accidentally oneself with a needle
- What are the different ways healthcare staff can become infected? (blood, human tissue, vaginal secretions from discarded hygiene products, etc) Also, we do have specific training for healthcare workers and infection control processes and procedures.
- What are the OSHA Exposure Control Plan requirements for the protection of bloodborne pathogens for medical staff?
