The primary purpose of the American Heart Association HeartSaver Bloodborne Pathogens course is to train employees on how to protect themselves and others from being exposed to blood or blood-containing materials.

​

This course is designed to meet Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) requirements for bloodborne pathogens (BBP) training when paired with site-specific instruction. 

​

This course is designed for anyone with a reasonable chance of coming into contact with bloodborne pathogens such as:

Correctional Officers

Childcare workers

Security guards

Maintenance workers

School personnel

Hotel housekeepers

Health and fitness club staff

Tattoo artists.

AHA’s course uses the PACT acronym (Protect, Act, Clean, Tell) and slogan, “Make a PACT, Know How to Act,” to help students learn and easily recall bloodborne pathogens training.

•  Protect themselves from exposure to bloodborne pathogens

•  Act when exposed to blood or blood-containing materials in the workplace
