Accushield continues to be hyper-focused on helping you maintain compliance while replacing outdated processes with innovation, automation, and simplicity. We continue our journey with replacing the manual, paper-based process of managing respirator fit tests.
Protect Through Prevention
Respirators protect healthcare workers by preventing airborne or droplet transmission of infectious diseases and hazardous air contaminants. A respirator can be rendered useless if it doesn’t fit properly. A respirator’s fit effectiveness is so critical that the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) created a standard protocol for all healthcare workers. Additionally, OSHA requires that a respirator mask fit test must be conducted upon hire, annually or whenever an employee experiences visual changes of physical condition that could affect respirator’s fit.
Increased scrutiny by surveyors and other agencies has been felt across the industry. In fact, respiratory protection non-compliance is among the top 10 most common OSHA citations. That’s why we created a solution to demonstrate compliance and eliminate risk.
