Training topics · Infection control

Infection control training built for the patient’s kitchen, not a hospital hallway.

In the home there’s no sink outside the room and no supply closet down the hall. We build infection control training from your own policy and bag technique, so aides and clinicians practice the moments that matter in the places they actually work.

We reply within one business day.

What the standard says

Home health agencies must provide infection control education to staff, patients and caregivers (42 CFR 484.70(c)). Hospices must provide infection control education to employees, contracted providers, patients, and family members and other caregivers (42 CFR 418.60(c)).

Content is aligned with CDC hand hygiene guidance for healthcare personnel and with your own policy. OSHA bloodborne pathogens training has its own rules, including an opportunity for live questions and answers with a knowledgeable trainer (29 CFR 1910.1030(g)(2)).

Our modules are designed to support these requirements. Your organization provides the supervision, keeps the records, and remains responsible for meeting them.

The problem in the field

Why the home changes everything.

Most infection control training was written for facilities. Aides walk into kitchens with pets, family members and cluttered counters, and they have to decide where to set the bag, when to clean their hands, and what to do when there’s no clean surface at all.

When training walks through a real visit, from the front door to the exit, staff remember the sequence. When it’s a slide of rules, they remember the slide.

How it works for infection control

The visit, step by step.

The moments that matter

From the front door to the exit, staff practice where hands are cleaned, where the bag goes, and how equipment is handled.

Your bag technique, taught your way

We teach your agency’s procedure, not a generic one, using your policy language.

Pairing with bloodborne pathogens training

A module can support your bloodborne pathogens program, and OSHA still calls for an opportunity for live questions and answers with a knowledgeable trainer. We help you plan that step.

What you receive

A short module, a supervisor sign-off checklist and a completion record, delivered as a web link and an MP4 you own.

FAQ

Infection control training questions.

Does this cover OSHA bloodborne pathogens?

It can support it. OSHA requires an opportunity for interactive questions and answers with a person knowledgeable in the subject, so plan a live Q&A step alongside any module.

Can we use it for patient and caregiver education too?

Yes. We can build a plain-language version for patients and caregivers from the same policy.

Is there a Spanish version?

Spanish versions are available as a scoped add-on.

How often should we refresh it?

Your policy and your infection control program set the schedule. Many agencies revisit hand hygiene and bag technique at least once a year and after any related finding.
