Infection Control, Universal Precautions, and Blood-borne Pathogens for Early Intervention
Course Objectives, Outcomes & Course Agenda
Our Infection Control - Universal Precautions & Bloodborne Pathogens online Course & Certification is concerned with preventing the spread of infection within the pre-school and early intervention setting. According to OSHA (Occupational Safety and Health Administration) an employee with the potential for exposure to blood or other potentially infectious material (OPIM) is required to take Universal Precautions training annually. As a facility based, or itinerant teacher or therapist, you will learn about hand-washing, disinfection, cleaning, as well as the role of personal protective equipment in those critical situations in which infection control is essential.

Young children are particularly sensitive, have a less mature immune system than adults, and are hence more exposed to the variety of infections that adults may carry and transmit. If you are working with young children, it is incumbent upon you to learn this valuable information and apply it to your best practice. Learn the risks and types of infectious diseases contracted through exposure, the proper safeguards to prevent exposure, proper methods of handling potential contaminants, and help prevent the spread of infections. Course agenda includes theoretical foundation for understanding various disease vectors.

Learn the appropriate use of gloves, how to handle bodily fluids, how to appropriately disinfect toys, and other infection control situations. Also, learn how to prevent your inadvertent acting as a vector for disease transmission. Understand how to minimize transmission of pathogens, how blood borne or other pathogens may be transmitted in the work environment to children, and how to best apply infection control principles in the best interest of the child under your care. This online course meets the OSHA educational criteria in accordance with Title 29, part 1910 of the Code of Federal Regulations, as well as the NYS DOH Health and Safety Standards for the Early Intervention Program. Our e-training exceeds standards provided by the American Red Cross, National Safety Council, and other comparable online courses, as our courses have been reviewed by experts in infection control and epidemiology.
