CalOSHA and Common ASC Questions
As ASCs are busy providing excellent care for their patients, it’s critical that they also offer a safe and healthy environment for their employees and medical staff. This webinar will take place on October 26, 2023, at 2:00 p.m. The session will walk us through the common questions our members provide to CASA regarding standards and regulations as they pertain to CalOSHA and their oversight.
This webinar is free to CASA members and will not be available on demand. Make sure you don’t miss out on this important information and opportunity to hear directly from CalOSHA.
CASA 2023 Virtual Infection Prevention and Surveillance Seminar
Keeping up with the demands for infection prevention & surveillance is critical, especially with staff turnover. ASCs must ensure they have a licensed individual trained in infection prevention overseeing the ASC's infection control practices. Accreditation bodies will be looking to confirm your center has the most current policies and training. CASA has secured an outstanding group of industry experts to provide you with this critical information.
In addition to reviewing the important components essential to infection prevention, we will be reviewing new information such as the recent AAMI standard regarding clinical water. Is your ASC in compliance? We will also be bringing in ASC IP leaders to talk through real-life challenging situations in the ASC setting that you must tackle as infection prevention leaders.
Make sure you don’t miss out!
