Actually more than 90% of the healthcare facilities that are audited receive more than one citation!
OSHA employee training is required for your dental office annually. This includes receptionists, hygienists, dental assistants, part time employees and even the doctors. Our elaborate OSHA dental office training lasts a full day.
First Aid, CPR & AED
First aid is the first and immediate assistance given to any person suffering from either a minor or serious illness or injury, with care provided to preserve life, prevent the condition from worsening, or to promote recovery. It includes initial intervention in a serious condition prior to professional medical help being available, such as performing cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) while waiting for an ambulance, as well as the complete treatment of minor conditions, such as applying a plaster to a cut. In some occasions it requires the operation of an automated external defibrillator (AED), a lightweight, portable device that delivers an electric shock through the chest to the heart.
