OSHA's Bloodborne Pathogens Standard
(29 CFR 1910.1030)
$85.00
The
purpose of this course is to ensure awareness and promote safety among employees
who may be exposed to bloodborne pathogens. The objective is to ensure that
employees operate in the safest possible manner in situations where contact with
potentially infectious materials is likely.
At the conclusion of this module, students will:
Understand bloodborne pathogens and how
they are spread
Learn the importance of the Exposure
Control Plan
Incorporate the knowledge of what to do
in case of accidental exposure
Use appropriate safety methods and work
practice controls
Recognize signs and labels that are
used to alert personnel of danger involving infectious material
Course Overview:
Through
appropriate training and awareness, lives can be saved and needless injuries to
personnel can be avoided. This training includes information on the prevention,
transmission and recording of occupational exposure to bloodborne pathogens. It
includes information intended for all employees that are at risk for accidental
exposure.
The assumptions concerning various
pathogens are described:
Methods of transmission for hepatitis
virus (HBV or HCV) are similar to those of HIV,
the potential for hepatitis virus is
greater than for HIV,
there is more experience relating to
controlling transmission of hepatitis in the workplace,
therefore, general practices to prevent
the transmission of hepatitis will reduce the risk for transmission of HIV.
