The Organization for Safety, Asepsis and Prevention (OSAP) is offering the CORE Infection Control Boot Camp in Tampa, FL, from January 6-8, 2014.
With infection-control safety in the news recently, including the documentation of the first patient-to-patient transmission of hepatitis C in a U.S. dental practice, it has never been more important to practice and be up-to-date on safe infection control practices, according to OSAP.
During the three-day course, dental professionals can build a solid foundation of infection-control knowledge. The course is for infection-control coordinators, educators responsible for infection prevention and safety instruction, state compliance officers, risk managers, federal service employees responsible for infection-control duties, consultants, and even sales representatives.
Therese Long, OSAP executive director, said the course is considered essential training. "It's rigorous and delivers 24 hours of continuing education credits, a comprehensive resource binder, checklists, tools, and more in three days ... that's why it's a 'boot camp,' " she said.
The course will be held at the Wyndham Tampa Westshore. The registration deadline for the boot camp is December 20, 2013. For more information, including rates and lodging, visit the OSAP website.
