Needlestick Injury Prevention And Training Video

If you need to train your staff on how to avoid needle stick injuries then this training video is just for you! Although accurate statistics are hard to come by, it is estimated that approximately 1 million incidents of on-the-job needle sticks occur every year in the United States. While health care workers are at highest risk for these injuries, they are commonplace in a number of other fields, as well. In order to combat this problem, recent changes to OSHA regulations have made the requirements for handling sharps and blood-borne pathogens much more stringent. This 12-minute training video provides valuable tips, tools, and techniques to help health care workers avoid potentially deadly needle-stick injuries, and you can rest assured that all of the information presented is consistent with the latest OSHA mandates. While the video is geared toward health care professionals, it may also be a helpful training tool for other at-risk groups, such as first responders or custodial staff. The video also comes with a CD-ROM that is packed full of relevant printables, training tools, and bonus material.
