Bloodborne and Airborne Pathogen Exposure Follow-up Services

What do you do when an accidental needle stick occurs? What measures should be taken when a worker is exposed to blood or bodily fluids? Is your company prepared to react quickly and effectively to protect your employees?

These are questions many companies must address as an increasingly large segment of the work population runs the risk of exposure to bloodborne and airborne pathogens. In light of how grave such exposure can be, special handling is needed and, in most cases, mandated by OSHA and the Centers for Disease Control.

Through our Bloodborne and Airborne Pathogen Exposure Follow-up Service, Corporate Wellness provides several levels of assistance ensuring that you and your employees have someone to turn to for immediate help.

Since timing is crucial in cases of exposure, a Corporate Wellness case manager is on call and available to your company 24 hours a day, seven days a week.
