    Frequently Asked Questions

    The blood borne pathogens course that closes the gaps between sharps handling and exposure response

    Bloodborne pathogens such as hepatitis B, hepatitis C and HIV spread through contact with infected blood, as the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention explains. Risk rises when:

    • Sharps injuries happen when contaminated items aren't discarded immediately after use.

    • Hepatitis B risk lingers when staff don't know the vaccine is free or what declining means.

    • Exposure response slows when staff don't report an incident right away.

    • PPE fails when cracked or torn gloves stay in use.

    Four focused lessons that take staff from safe sharps handling to exposure response

    This Bloodborne Pathogens course is online and ready to use, so staff can open it on any device and finish it in short sessions. It covers:

    • Choose safer devices and discard contaminated sharps in red, puncture-resistant containers.

    • Explain the hepatitis B vaccine and the declination form.

    • Report exposure incidents fast for free medical evaluation and follow-up.

    • Select, replace and remove PPE based on the exposure you face.
