Keeping our caregivers well

Needle sticks, drugs, repetitive motion injuries, back strains from lifting patients — these are just some of the potential areas for claims when working in healthcare and nursing. Training all members of the healthcare team, regardless of location, is imperative to keeping employees safe in this environment.

Don't forget to use a training roster to document your employee safety training.
