Our monthly OSHA Bulletin covers OSHA-related topics pertinent to private practices, frequently in response to needs expressed through phone calls we receive. We also keep our readers abreast of new developments in OSHA. Sometimes we step outside the OSHA box to cover topics related to safety, including patient safety, but not regulated by OSHA. Recent topics include:

• Safer Sharps Evaluation
• Hazardous Materials Updates
• Tuberculosis
• Uncommon Uses for Common Chemicals: Vinegar, Ammonia, WD-40
• State-Specific OSHA Requirements
• Preparing for an Influenza Pandemic
• Off-Label Use of Prescription Drugs
• Hepatitis B Vaccination

• FAQ’s
