Every day, medical professionals treat people who have been injured at work. Due to their unique environments and responsibilities, medical personnel themselves are also twice as likely as other employees to suffer an injury at work. The first step towards reducing these injuries is to educate medical personnel about how to identify, prevent and protect themselves from the hazards that can be found in a healthcare environment.
The Safety and Human Resource Healthcare courses for Medical Personnel provide crucial information about how to recognize and defend against these hazards, the government regulations that they must comply with to make their facility a safer place, and how to work well together.
The courses are divided into a number of logical sections, each with its own quiz, so information is easily understood. The interactive formats allow trainers to collect employee performance information which can be organized through a powerful relational database and provides recordkeeping and tracking report capabilities.
The DVD programs contain a Presenter’s Guide, Employee Quizzes, Scheduling and Attendance Forms, and Training Certificates.
Languages: Programs are available in English and Spanish.
Formats: Web-based E-learning / DVD / Micro Learning (3-5 minute courses) / Adaptive-Learning
