Red Cross Schedules Class on Diseases in Workplace
Orange County Red Cross on Friday will offer a low-cost class on preventing disease transmission in the workplace.
During the two-hour class, employees will learn how to use protective equipment that can lower their risk of exposure to infectious materials; proper reporting procedures; and follow-up on exposures to infection and blood-borne pathogens like HIV, tuberculosis and hepatitis.
“Education is the best way to prevent infectious disease from spreading,” said Tom Broadston, chair of health and safety for the Red Cross’ Orange County chapter.
Registration is $15. The class will take place from 1 to 3 p.m. at 600 N. Parkcenter Drive in Santa Ana.
Information: (714) 835-5381.
