Generic N95 Fit-Testing Card is Released
The Association of Occupational Health Professionals in Healthcare (AOHP) and the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) Alliance, in conjunction with the National Institute of Occupational Safety and Health’s National Personal Protective Technology Lab (NPPTL), have developed and released a generic N95 fit-testing card.
The card will allow healthcare workers to easily recall the type of N95 respirator for which they have been trained and fitted. The front of the card details the N95 respirator information, and the back of the card offers safety tips for donning and doffing personal protective equipment (PPE) in the healthcare setting.
The template for the card is available on AOHP’s Web site at http://www.aohp.org under "Tools for Your Work/Free Publications."
