Course Overview

This comprehensive 15-Hour Healthcare: Hospital Safety Specialist training program provides participants with essential knowledge and practical skills required for maintaining safe and healthy work environments in hospital settings. The program is specifically tailored for healthcare professionals seeking comprehensive safety training in a hospital setting.


Participants will learn to apply OSHA standards and healthcare industry best practices to recognize and prevent hazards specific to hospital operations while understanding fundamental safety procedures. This program combines theoretical concepts with practical applications and real-world case studies to ensure participants gain valuable knowledge applicable to their professional environment while emphasizing hazard identification, patient and worker safety, and hospital-specific safety challenges. Hospitals are an essential component within the more extensive healthcare system. Although hospitals are designed to help the sick and injured, employees face various hazards when working in a hospital. This program offers a deep dive into critical OSHA training topics, including OSHA bloodborne pathogens and hospital-specific safety hazards and challenges. This program helps employers meet OSHA training requirements for their staff.
