BloodBorne Pathogens Is The imprortance Of Safety

25 Apr 2020 6:33 AM | Kier Merricks

With an extensive background in Public Safety, ranging from working in extremely filthy facilities as a Correctional Officer/Deputy, to dealing with some really sick and contagious people as a Firefighter/EMT, the importance of always being safe and protected is not an option for me. As the owner of M.A.S.S. Cleaning LLC,  proper Personal Protective Equipment will be worn in every situation to not only protect myself from possible infectious diseases, but also my family and friends.

Hepatitis B and HIV are too serious of illnesses to not comply with simple yet effective protective practices. Taking universal precautions will never harm anyone. Just simply putting on gloves and safety glasses may potentially save my life as well as others. I believe the cost of time to put on what is needed to protect me from the dangers of this field is well worth it.   

One must take into consideration that not all blood borne pathogens can be seen with the naked eye. That alone implores me to be thorough in the cleaning and disinfecting of all jobs big or small. Proper disposal of soiled items and PPE along with immediately washing my hands is equally important. Following OSHA standards and guidelines will keep my company in compliance and in good standing with my clients.
