Abstract

The Occupational Safety and Health Administration has proposed monitoring employee compliance with universal precautions, as recommended by the Centers for Disease Control. Our respiratory care department, following a four-step system development plan, has developed and implemented a universal precautions monitoring system that is easy to adapt to any health care department. The results from monitoring can be used for educational planning, quality assurance purposes, and employee performance reviews.
