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.
