Loss Control Service Plan A shift in the service plan Training and Emergency Preparedness Activities Vice Presidents and all supervisor training explained the importance and why we need Loss Control/Risk Management Individual location visits vs. training
Loss Control Service Plan Training Topics Home Care Training - Bloodborne Pathogens and Safety Concerns (Slip/Trip/Fall & Back) Forklift/Pallet Jack Training Warehouse and WIC centers Facilities Training - Training for the facilities employees includes Bloodborne Pathogens, MRSA, Slip/Trip/Fall Ladders and Back Injury Prevention. Bloodborne Pathogen Training - The Bloodborne Pathogens training reviews the OSHA standard, teaches universal precautions and proper hand washing and disinfection. MRSA Training: MRSA Awareness training has been added to the Bloodborne Pathogen training by request. Driver Awareness Training - The Driver Awareness program places emphasis on defensive driving, aggressive drivers, distraction and seatbelts. Car Seat Installation Training - A hands-on approach will be conducted that will include placement precautions and tools to use. Children's behavior will also be discussed. Emergency Preparation and Lockdown Training, site assessment, drills
Developed Due to Conversations in the Safety Council Meetings At the most basic level, preparing for disaster starts with preparedness at home and within the individual family unit. To help ensure that Catholic Charities can continue its mission of service during a crisis, it is essential for employees and volunteers to be prepared at home so they may be available to fulfill their workrelated responsibilities, as well as their personal responsibilities.
