Course overview

One of the elements of a safe healthcare setting is the implementation of strategies that minimize or prevent healthcare-associated infections (HAIs). While the risk of transmission of pathogenic microorganisms in oral healthcare settings is rare, HAIs do present a potential hazard to healthcare providers and patients alike. A critical element of basic expectation for safe care is the implementation of Standard and Transmission-base Precautions and an ongoing education and training program.
