Infection Control (NYSED and NYDOH approved!)

Description

More than 24% of patients who develop healthcare-associated sepsis do not survive — and this is only one of the serious conditions addressed in our workshop. This underscores how essential strong infection control and prevention practices are, whether combating common illnesses or life-threatening infections.

Through our state-approved Infection Control Workshop, you’ll develop a comprehensive understanding of your critical role in applying infection control measures and safety protocols to protect both yourself and your patients.

Goal of Infection Control Training as Mandated by Chapter 786

 Assure that licensed, registered, or certified health professionals understand how bloodborne pathogens may be transmitted in the work environment: patient to healthcare worker, healthcare worker to patient, and patient to patient;

 Apply current scientifically accepted infection prevention and control principles as

appropriate for the specific work environment;

 Minimize opportunity for transmission of pathogens to patients and healthcare workers; and

 Familiarize professionals with the law requiring this training and the professional misconduct charges that may be applicable for not complying with the law.
