In the face of emerging infectious diseases, our frontline heroes – including teachers, nurses, police officers, firefighters, EMS technicians, doctors, and laboratory staff – tirelessly serve our communities. However, safeguarding our invaluable assets requires more than just plans. We believe in bridging effective strategies with Safer Behaviors to empower and protect those on the front lines, ensuring a safer and more resilient future for all
Addressing inherent risks through assessment and management is essential, but overlooking residual risks, also known as human risk factors, can undermine safety efforts. To bridge this gap, incorporating strategies rooted in behavioral sciences is paramount. These tailored approaches complement existing safety measures, with a specific focus on preparing and safeguarding the workforce in laboratory and clinical settings for a more comprehensive risk management approach.
