Bloodborne and Exposure Control

Bloodborne and exposure control is a critical public health practice to minimize the risk of exposure to bloodborne pathogens. It is aimed at protecting healthcare workers, patients, and the general public from diseases such as HIV, hepatitis B and C. Exposure control involves a combination of safety measures, such as the use of personal protective equipment and the implementation of infection control guidelines, to reduce the risk of acquiring or transmitting bloodborne pathogens. By understanding and using an effective bloodborne and exposure control plan, healthcare facilities can ensure a safer environment for everyone.
