Name: ______________________________Department/Institution:____________________________ Emergency Medical Services Contact hours – 1.0 Goals & Objectives Goal To increase the learner's understanding of infection control strategies for emergency medical services. Objectives Discuss the impact of daily infection control practices by first responders in the field in relationship to a mass casualty event related to trauma or an infectious disease. Test 1. Standard infection control practices related to the transporting of a patient with a respiratory infection and nausea include a. Wearing personal protective equipment in the cab as an added safety measure. b. Blowing out the rig after transport to thoroughly clean the compartment. c. Disinfecting all frequently touched surfaces after the patient has been transported. d. All of the above. 2. When responding to the scene with multiple casualties, best practice is to a. Wear one pair of nitrile gloves during the triage process since time is critical and nitrile is durable. b. Change gloves after having contact with a victim with non intact skin before touching another victim. c. Wear disposable shoe covers (booties) since it is not possible to distinguish between blood and other liquids at the scene after sunset. d. All of the above. 3. The Ryan White Act allows a. First responders to inquire about the victims HIV status before providing care. b. Health care agencies to assist with communicable disease exposure follow-up for certain diseases. c.
