CURRICULUM

Bloodborne Pathogens

The course includes up-to-date information relating to the OSHA Bloodborne Pathogens Standard. While you may face significant health risks if you come in contact with blood or other potentially infectious materials, our NSTS trainers will teach you how to reduce those risks.

Our certified trainers will show you how to protect yourself and what to do if an exposure occurs. This course specifically covers:

• An introduction to bloodborne pathogens
• Information on common pathogens found in the United States, including the hepatitis and zika viruses and HIV Prevention techniques for infection

Standard First Aid

This three-hour course will teach you how to respond in a first-aid emergency. Whether it’s a simple sprain or a serious emergency, our Standard First Aid course will teach you how to care for an injury or illness until professional help arrives. Topics covered include:

• Shock
• Burns
• Poisoning
• Bone, joint & muscle injuries
• Rescuing & moving victims
• Bleeding & wound care

Our certified trainers will teach you the very latest first-aid techniques, giving you the confidence and expertise to help someone in an emergency.
