Course Description

This OSHA and ILCOR compliant course is intended to teach users about pathogens that can be encountered through bodily fluids. Designed for workplace use it teaches participants about the hazards, prevention and solutions for fluid events. This course meets workplace requirements for individuals with a reasonable risk of encountering fluid interactions.

The Bloodborne Pathogens program is designed to train layperson rescuers for reporting and logging procedures, application and removal of PPE, and disposal of hazardous waste.

The OSHA bloodborne pathogens standard from 1910.1030(g)(2) requires employers to provide training to any employees who have occupational exposure to blood or other potentially infectious materials, such as employees assigned medical or first aid duties by their employers. The standard at 29 CFR 1910.1030(b) defines “occupational exposure” as “reasonably anticipated skin, eye, mucous membrane, or parenteral contact with blood or other potentially infectious materials that may result from the performance of an employee’s duties.” If an employee is trained in first aid and identified by the employer as responsible for rendering medical assistance as part of his/her job duties, that employee is covered by the bloodborne pathogens standard.
