Dotty Bollinger, RN, JD, LHCRM, CASC, is chief medical operations officer for Laser Spine Institute.
Q: What are the training requirements for housekeeping staff in an ambulatory surgery center?
Dotty Bollinger: Check with your state regulations to ensure training requirements for housekeeping staff. Be prepared to show evidence that the staff received BBP [bloodborne pathogen] and hazard communications training, and that all products used are EPA registered.
We require our national providers to provide “certifications” for all staff, and that includes a comprehensive training. That’s our internal requirement.
