Kentucky OSHA requires that all dental personnel be trained in the Bloodborne Pathogen Standard and the revised Hazard Communication/GHS Standard. Dental personnel should receive an initial training and thereafter, an annual update. This course reviews the following standards and guidelines and offers suggestions on how to implement them in your office:

• OSHA Hazard Communication Standard/GHS Standard
(must comply by June 1, 2016)
• OSHA Bloodborne Pathogen Standard
• CDC Dental Guidelines 2016
• The Needlestick Safety and Prevention Act
• U.S. Public Health Service Guidelines for the Management of Occupational Exposures to HBV, HCV, and HIV and Recommendations for Post
Exposure Prophylaxis
• CDC Guidelines for Hand Hygiene in Healthcare

This presentation will provide a very practical approach to implementing the regulations and guidelines in the dental office.
