Precautions have been developed by OSHA and the CDC to help prevent and control the spread of infectious diseases. This program introduces infection control policies, explaining that gowns and gloves should be worn by staff for all interactions that involve contact with the resident's bodily fluids, blood, secretions, or excretions, as well as contact with potentially contaminated areas in the environment and that personal protective equipment (PPE) should be donned before entry into the room and discarded before exit. It discusses OSHA's Bloodborne Pathogens Standard, the CDC's Standard Precautions, the CDC's transmission-based precautions, and the Needlestick Safety and Prevention Act. It also discusses infection prevention practice strategies, including handling of sharps, linen and trash, and contaminated spills, and addresses lab issues.
