Videos help providers check injection practices
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) continues to investigate outbreaks as a result of unsafe injection practices. These mistakes and knowledge gaps put healthcare providers and patients at risk. The CDC’s One & Only Campaign created two short videos to help make healthcare safer, one injection at a time:
• Check Your Steps! Make Every Injection Safe for healthcare providers, 3 minutes and 45 seconds;
• Managing Patient Safety, One Injection at a Time for healthcare managers, 2 minutes and 33 seconds.
Created by the Safe Injection Practices Coalition, these videos detail critical information to help providers and facility managers double check their injection safety knowledge and help keep patients safe from unnecessary harm.
