First responders, dentists
and dental hygienists, lab
workers, police, EMT's and
paramedics face significant
health risks from exposure to
bloodborne pathogens in blood
and other potentially infectious
materials (OPIM). Bloodborne
pathogens commonly found in the
U.S. include hepatitis B virus (HBV),
hepatitis C virus (HCV) and
human immunodeficiency virus
(HIV).
The National Safety Council's
Bloodborne and Airborne
Pathogens course helps reduce
those risks by focusing on how
to protect oneself from blood
and airborne pathogens and what
to do if an exposure occurs. In
2 hours, the course covers:
- Introduction to
bloodborne pathogens
- Bloodborne pathogens,
including hepatitis viruses
and HIV
- Preventing infection
from bloodborne pathogens
- Airborne pathogens,
including tuberculosis
