Course Overview

In this course, you will follow Mr. Rosenthal through practical infection-control situations during one care day. You will practice when to wash hands, when to use gloves, how to prevent cross-contamination, how to handle cleaning and laundry concerns, and what to report when illness symptoms or bodily fluid exposure occurs.

This course focuses specifically on infection-control awareness and hand hygiene. It avoids duplicating separate RCCS courses on bathing skills, toileting support, medication side effects, medical emergency response, incident reporting, or broad documentation basics.
