On June 21, OSHA (Occupational Safety and Health Administration) announced new Emergency Temporary Standards for the healthcare industry that employers must take to protect workers from the novel coronavirus (COVID-19). To meet the federal mandate, Ballad Health has taken several steps in the workplace that have been communicated systemwide.
As part of the guidelines for protecting workers from the risk of novel coronavirus (COVID-19), all Ballad Health team members, contract employees and employed physicians are required to complete a training CBL by 7 a.m. on Monday, July 26.
The CBL can be found by logging into HealthStream. Failure to complete the CBL will result in suspension until the CBL is completed.
