About this Course
This course on infection control is designed for anyone who works in a healthcare setting where they may be exposed to infectious viruses like Hepatitis B, HIV, or COVID-19. (Not a healthcare worker? You might be better off with our Preparing the Workplace for COVID-19 course.)
We'll review the infection control guidelines issued in the AAHA 2018 Infection Control Syllabus. We'll also discuss the current CDC recommendations on how to handle COVID-19 in a healthcare setting, including patients with or suspected to have COVID-19.
You'll learn how to protect yourself, your fellow healthcare workers, and your patients from transmission of infectious pathogens.
We'll provide a certificate of completion for your records once you pass the course, and you'll earn 0.2 IACET-approved CEUs.
