Infection Control 8-Minute Solution: Respiratory Etiquette

Influenza, SARS and other emerging respiratory diseases are most likely transmitted by close person-to-person interaction with an infected individual - primarily through exposure to infectious respiratory secretions. This is why all staff must become aware of proper respiratory etiquette to prevent the spread of disease.

This program produced in association with:

• 8 minute visual presentation available in DVD or VHS
• Bonus Resource CD containing 10-Question Post Test

Learning Objective: Educate all healthcare workers on proper respiratory etiquette in order to prevent the spread of respiratory diseases

Patients with highly contagious respiratory diseases can present to a facility at any time...infecting staff, other patients, and severely compromising the delivery of care. An educated staff is the key to preventing transmission.

Developed for all staff, this program clearly explains and demonstrates:

• How respiratory diseases are spread
• How to identify and isolate potentially ill patients
• Proper implementation of infection control protocols - including hand hygiene, appropriate use of PPE, and cough etiquette
