How often is OSHA training required in a medical or dental office?

According to OSHA, annual training such as Bloodborne Pathogens is required. OSHA interprets that to mean once every 365 days. To satisfy your training and policy requirements, we give you choices to best suit your needs and budget:

1) Training & Inspection:  Includes the required training topics for a healthcare office, a full-site inspection, labeling, documentation audit and corrective action report.  We issue CEUs through the AGD.

2)  Policy Development:  Add this component to save you time and ensure the project is completely accurate.  We will customize your OSHA materials and launch the project the day of training.  Please allow us 3 weeks to complete your policies.  We stand behind the policies developed by our office for your practice. Providing you remain current on your subscription, we issue updates if necessary during the year to assure you have the current materials.

Is attending a seminar sufficient to satisfy OSHA requirements in a healthcare office?

According to OSHA, medical and dental offices must provide training and general inspection procedures.  With our on site program, we carefully inspect your office and make recommendations for improvement.  The inspection usually requires 1 - 2 hours and we access all areas of the office.  Within 10 days, we will issue the Corrective Action Report detailing our findings and how to make appropriate changes.  Let our 10 years of professional safety management in healthcare work for you.
