Training Objectives

Execute safe sharps handling to prevent recapping injuries

Apply protocols for proper PPE removal and hand hygiene

Course Overview

Even the best gear fails if a single "innocent" habit puts you at risk. This training short focuses on Work Practice Controls, the behavioral adjustments that prevent infection. We identify workplace "Red Zones" where common habits like applying lip balm become dangerous biohazards.

We also tackle the "Recap Mishap," a notorious error responsible for a third of all sharps injuries, and reveal the one thing you must never do to a needle. Finally, we test your knowledge on spill cleanup. With Hepatitis B capable of surviving on surfaces for seven days, do you know the precise bleach dilution ratio required to kill it? Watch this video to learn the answer and turn safety protocols into second nature.

No Worries. Here's Some Helpful Info.

Work Practice Controls are specific procedures and behavioral modifications designed to alter the way a task is performed, thereby eliminating or minimizing the risk of exposure to workplace hazards.
When cleaning blood or OPIM spills, if you are using a bleach solution, you must use a dilution of 1 part bleach to 10 parts water to ensure effective disinfection.
You should never bend, break, recap, or remove contaminated sharps because this leads to "Recap Mishaps." Statistics show that nearly one-third of all sharps injuries occur during the disposal process.
The Hepatitis B virus is incredibly resilient and can live outside the human body on surfaces for up to seven days, making proper disinfection protocols critical.
No. Do not place food or drinks in refrigerators, freezers, shelves, or on countertops where blood and Other Potentially Infectious Materials (OPIM) are kept.
