Healthcare - Bloodborne Pathogens - Blood and OPIM, PS4 eLesson

There are many jobs that employees are dying to get, but there are none worth dying for. The Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) estimates that more than 5.6 million workers in healthcare and related occupations such as nurses, custodians, maintenance staff and research personnel are at risk of occupational exposure to bloodborne pathogens. In addition to the obvious risk to the healthcare community, many other occupations also encounter potential exposures to bloodborne pathogens: teachers, custodians, sanitation workers, or any concerned coworker in any job offering help to another sick or hurt team member. If your job duties include even occasional contact with blood or other infectious materials, you need to know how to effectively protect yourself against potential bloodborne pathogens, because understanding simple precautions can greatly minimize your chances of contracting a bloodborne disease.
