Chemical Spill Response & Cleanup Procedures Training
Credits : 0.3
About the Course:
This Chemical Spill Response & Cleanup Procedures microcredential introduces Surgical Technology learners to essential procedures for safely responding to chemical spills in surgical and clinical environments. Learners will practice using a chemical spill kit, maintaining hand hygiene, containing spilled materials, safely collecting broken glass, disinfecting affected surfaces, and disposing of contaminated materials appropriately.
Through immersive VR simulations, learners will practice absorbing a chemical spill using appropriate cleanup materials, collecting broken glass with tweezers, disposing of sharps safely, disinfecting the affected area, removing contaminated gloves, and performing hand hygiene after completing the cleanup. The course emphasizes exposure prevention, safe waste handling, contamination control, and maintaining a safe clinical environment.
Learning Objectives:
- Explain the purpose of a chemical spill kit in a surgical environment.
- Demonstrate appropriate hand hygiene before and after spill response activities.
- Identify the materials required for chemical spill cleanup.
- Practice safely containing and absorbing a chemical spill.
- Demonstrate proper removal and disposal of contaminated gloves.
- Perform hand sanitization after completing the spill cleanup.
- Maintain safe and organized work practices during chemical spill response.
This Chemical Spill Response & Cleanup Procedures training is delivered through our LMS and is available as both web-based and immersive VR training.
