Our Safety Orientation (Healthcare Version) training course gives new healthcare employees an essential introduction to workplace safety before their first shift. In the healthcare field, employees are the most important part of any safety program — you may encounter unique and potentially serious hazards every day, from bloodborne pathogens to needlesticks to patient handling. This 16-minute program is not a comprehensive training on every topic it covers; rather, it provides an accurate but brief overview to build the right safety mindset from day one, with your employer expected to provide more in-depth training on the hazards you'll encounter most frequently. Available in English and Spanish.

This orientation is intentionally brief — commonly paired with these dedicated courses for the healthcare-specific hazards it only introduces:
- Bloodborne Pathogens for Healthcare Training — a full-depth course on exposure prevention, needlestick safety, and OSHA 29 CFR 1910.1030 in a clinical setting, expanding on the bloodborne pathogens and needlestick topics touched on here.
- Back Safety: Healthcare Training — covers safe patient handling and transfer techniques specific to healthcare settings, going far beyond the general back safety overview in this orientation.
- HIPAA Privacy & Security Training — covers patient data privacy obligations and security requirements essential for all healthcare employees, a natural companion to new hire onboarding.
