A course that could save lives of frontline workers
PPE is the key defense against infection, but a study by JAMA found that even experienced caregivers sometimes did not take appropriate precautions against infectious agent transmission. This suggests that additional training on proper PPE usage is critical now that COVID-19 has struck the nation.
HealthcareSource is now offering a course by Amplifire that will quickly refresh frontline workers’ knowledge of PPE in ways that could help reduce risks of spreading the disease unknowingly – ultimately saving lives. It also provides guidance on how they can best protect themselves if your organization faces a PPE shortage.
