Safe Day One is recommended by ASHE as the best online education preparation for the new Certified Health Care Physical Environment Worker credential. The orientation of technicians, outside vendors and contractors in healthcare is not only a safety issue, it is required for accreditation with organizations such as The Joint Commission.
