Recognizing some of the most common hazards in the environment can help healthcare facility workers avoid accidents, according to an article on the FacilityCare website.
Some examples of best practices include:
• Remembering personal protective equipment (PPE) when dealing with hazardous chemicals or doing routine carpentry
• Making safety stations available. An easily accessible eyewash station should be immediately available.
• Don't take routine activities for granted. As workers get comfortable dealing with this equipment, and its potential hazards, they may grow careless, feeling they’ve managed the risk since they’ve done this numerous times without problems.
