Course/Product Description

Title:

OSHA Bloodborne Pathogens Ultra™

Description:

OSHA Bloodborne Pathogens Ultra™
OSHA Bloodborne Pathogens Ultra™ is the most advanced OSHA Healthcare Compliance Bloodborne training program on the market today.

Designed to reduce healthcare workers' risk through extensive bloodborne research, it incorporates the latest statistical data on blood & body fluid exposures AND needlestick & sharp-object injuries, demonstrating the importance of installing safer healthcare practices while maintaining OSHA compliance.

Our unique educational approach empowers your healthcare employees to avoid preventable injuries associated with recognizable hazards. For instance, a nurse may install greater precautions if he or she knows what type of device constitutes the highest sharps injury rate, or re-evaluate her approach in using engineering control devices if she understands activation circumstances which directly impact safer needlestick injuries.

This is the essence of our program – we seek to change how your employees perform their tasks to reduce and or eliminate bloodborne injuries within OSHA’s Bloodborne Pathogen Standard Laws.

Although our emphasis is clearly on content, we have created a unique delivery platform which creates a visually compelling experience for healthcare employees. Through the utilization of medical graphics and slide animations, OSHA Bloodborne Pathogens Ultra™ is designed to engage its audience. This visual component of our program can best be expressed by the following equation:
  • Increased employee attention = greater comprehension
  • Greater comprehension = fewer work related injuries
  • Fewer work related injuries = increased productivity and lower workers' compensation premiums
OSHA Bloodborne Pathogens Ultra™ is designed for healthcare facilities of all sizes. For smaller healthcare facilities, simply administer our system as a self-study program, enabling your employees to learn at their own pace – non-instructor based learning. For larger healthcare facilities, OSHA Bloodborne Pathogens Ultra™ can be delivered by an instructor to groups of employees, saving your company time and money.

About The Provider: OSHA Optics, LLC is the Nation’s 1st and only OSHA bloodborne training company reducing healthcare workers’ risk through extensive bloodborne research!

We have a passion to reduce healthcare workers’ risk through our research and firmly believe the best means to accomplish this goal is to educate your employees on the facts linked to reported injuries. By connecting our research to OSHA’s regulations we compound the effect of safety awareness, enabling your employees to modify how they perform their tasks, creating safer work environments.

Our research is based upon OSHA Optics, LLC’s co-founder who currently serves as an Advanced Registered Nurse Practitioner with over 30 years of ARNP experience and is highly skilled in occupational safety within healthcare settings. She has pioneered, integrated and modified employee safety programs which have profoundly decreased injury rates, increased productivity and significantly reduced costs associated with preventable injuries. Her clinical diagnostic skills coupled with this experience grants us the luxury of presenting a revolutionary platform to deliver OSHA bloodborne compliance training.

OSHA Optics, LLC stands alone when compared to others in healthcare compliance. The vast majority of companies offering bloodborne training also offer OSHA training material for many industries outside healthcare. In other words, they can best be described as “generalists” in the compliance arena. This fact further separates us from “the pack.” With a singular focus in healthcare, OSHA Optics, LLC dedicates all its resources and intimate knowledge to better understand and educate employees on the nuances associated with healthcare related injuries.

Our personal relationships within OSHA and at the university level further increases our degree of separation in the marketplace. Through these alliances we bring the “pulse of bloodborne hazard avoidance” to your healthcare facilities’ floor, enacting real change.

All of our products include the latest OSHA regulations, most recent bloodborne data from the best medical surveillance systems around the world, and a delivery platform creating the most visual impact.

OSHA Optics, LLC delivers healthcare regulations uncomplicated and easily understood. Regardless of job title or level of responsibility, OSHA Optics, LLC’s training programs are based on universal application where each employee is subject to information which immediately increases their level of hazard awareness and enables them to install safer work practices.

As the leader in OSHA bloodborne compliant PowerPoint™ training, OSHA Optics, LLC will continue to leverage its relationships within the occupational health community to serve our on-going effort to provide expert OSHA compliance guidance.
