— COURSE DESCRIPTION
Chemical Safety
Healthcare facilities use hundreds of different chemicals daily—from cleaning agents and disinfectants to laboratory reagents and anesthetic gases. While essential for patient care and facility operations, these chemicals pose significant risks if improperly handled, stored, or used. Chemical exposures can cause burns, respiratory damage, skin conditions, and long-term health effects including cancer and organ damage.
This focused training course equips healthcare workers with essential knowledge about chemical hazards in their workplace. Employees learn to identify hazardous chemicals, understand exposure routes and health effects, interpret exposure limits, and apply prevention and protection methods that keep them safe while performing their duties.
The course covers the full range of chemicals healthcare workers encounter—cleaning products, sterilizing agents, laboratory chemicals, pharmaceutical substances, cytotoxic drugs, and medical gases—providing practical guidance applicable to diverse healthcare roles and settings.
