Exposure Control Plan ECP: employers are responsible for a written plan to inform and train employees (at no cost to the employee), what their risk level is, how risk can be decreased, safe practices, and updates in technology to minimize such. 9/17/2018 M2

Hazard Communication Exposure Control Plan Training regarding: Job function & risk categories Standard Practices-Policies & Procedures Infection Control, Blood Spills & Sharps Engineering Controls Awareness Safe Work Practices Infectious Waste Disposal 9/17/2018 M2

Employee Hazard Protection Personal Protective Equipment - Gloves, face shields, mask , gown, eye wear - Indications for use: body fluids that may splash, infective agents that are transmitted via air or contact Material Safety Data Sheets Immediate resources Common Causes of Injury 9/17/2018 M2

STANDARD PRECAUTIONS BLOODBORNE PATHOGENS: A GERM THAT TRAVELS IN THE BLOOD AND BODY FLUIDS THAT IS CAPABLE OF CAUSING DISEASE. A GERM THAT TRAVELS IN THE BLOOD AND BODY FLUIDS THAT IS CAPABLE OF CAUSING DISEASE. Text 9/17/2018 M2

BLOODBORNE PATHOGEN STANDARD Covers what a bloodborne pathogen is How is it transmitted Prevention of transmission methods PPE Hand washing Sharps injury prevention Bio-hazardous waste disposal Disease prevention via vaccinations 9/17/2018 M2

Three Primary disease risks for Healthcare Workers HIV Aids HBV Hepatitis B HCV Hepatitis C Other bloodborne illnesses such as Malaria, Rocky Mountain Tick Fever, Crutzfeldt-Jacob Disease, Syphilis & West Nile Virus are risk factors but not considered by OSHA to be workplace risks. 9/17/2018 M2

SYMPTOMS HIV Hepatitis B Hepatitis C fatigue Loss of appetite N&V Swollen lymph nodes jaundice Night sweats Amber, tea colored urine Lingering infection Gray stools Enlarged liver 9/17/2018 M2

Hepatitis B Vaccination Hep B only work-related Bloodborne disease for which vaccine is available OSHA requirement in Exposure Control Plan 97% Effective Ten Year Revaccination Recommended 9/17/2018 M2

TUBERCULOSIS Increase in Resistance Transmission is by air and respiratory inhalation At Risk: TB exposed & diminished immune system Infected vs Infectious 9/17/2018 M2

TB: Employee Protection Specific respiratory masks are required and must be correctly fitted to be effective (N95, N99, N100, R95, R99, R100, P95, P99, and P100 filters (including disposable respirators) Negative airflow is required for respiratory isolation. TB testing performed routinely on healthcare workers 9/17/2018 M2

ERGONOMICS DEFINITION: (Body Mechanics) this includes good posture, good lifting & transferring techniques of items & people, positioning changes when sitting/standing in one place for long periods of time, good resting/relaxing techniques, and the efficient organization of work areas and supplies. Use mechanical devices/aides when indicated Utilize proper lifting techniques Maintain a healthy back with exercise 9/17/2018 M2

Chemical Exposure Chemical exposure can be a result of inhalation, direct contact or ingestion. Chemical accidents occur when people do not read or do not follow the directions for using or mixing of a chemical agent 9/17/2018 M2

Radiation Exposure Radiation exposure is determined by length of time exposed, distance from the radiation source and the amount of the radiation dose. 9/17/2018 M2

Latex Sensitivity Latex allergies on the rise Causative agents Type I allergic reaction Hives, itching, teary eyes , runny nose, respiratory distress Other allergies precipitate latex allergy Latex sensitive persons need to avoid balloons,condoms,rubber bands, shoe soles 9/17/2018 M2

VIOLENCE IN THE WORKPLACE Increased awareness of potential dangers Increase personal safety, i.e. car park safety Report suspicious persons to security promptly Bomb Threat: In the event of a phoned threat, gather as much information as possible from caller-write it down and pass it on to security and police. 9/17/2018 M2
