Description
OSHA requires First Aid training wherever emergency care is not within a few minutes of the workplace. Participants will learn to provide immediate care to ill or injured persons awaiting professional care. OSHA requires all emergency workplace responders and employees at risk of exposure to blood, while performing their job duties, to have annual training on Bloodborne Pathogens Standards. This course satisfies all OSHA guidelines for compliance. Videos, AMA guidebooks, discussion and practice build skills in first aid and personal protection.
