USP <800> Protecting Healthcare Workers Handling Hazardous Drugs
January 21   |   11 a.m. CT   |   CLE Hours: 1

This presentation focuses on new Standards of Practice for an old problem that has the potential for catastrophic harmful health effects from occupational exposure and the legal implications associated with failing to meet the requirements necessary to comply to the USP <800> standards of practice. Notably, this presentation is not focused on specific hazardous drugs but rather in providing the legal community with a background of a healthcare worker problem, new standards of practice to protect healthcare workers handling hazardous drugs and applicable resources for engaging in the battlefield of causation.
