A Heartsaver Bloodborne Pathogens class is an American Heart Association (AHA) course that teaches participants how to protect themselves and others from exposure to bloodborne pathogens — infectious microorganisms in human blood that can cause serious diseases such as Hepatitis B, Hepatitis C, and HIV.

What Happens in a Heartsaver Bloodborne Pathogens Class

This class provides essential training for anyone who may come into contact with blood or bodily fluids as part of their job or in emergency situations. Participants learn how to:

  • Understand what bloodborne pathogens are and how they are spread.

  • Apply standard precautions to reduce exposure risks.

  • Use personal protective equipment (PPE) properly.

  • Safely clean up spills involving blood or potentially infectious materials.

  • Respond appropriately if an exposure occurs, including reporting and follow-up steps.

  • Follow OSHA (Occupational Safety and Health Administration) requirements for workplace safety.

The course is suitable for healthcare workers, first responders, janitorial staff, childcare providers, teachers, and anyone who may encounter blood or bodily fluids on the job or in daily life.

Why This Class Is Important

  • Prevents Disease Transmission: Proper training reduces the risk of contracting or spreading serious infections.

  • Promotes Workplace Safety: Ensures compliance with OSHA standards and helps maintain a safe environment for both workers and the public.

  • Builds Confidence: Participants learn exactly what to do — and what not to do — if they are exposed to blood or bodily fluids.

  • Empowers Everyday Heroes: Even in non-medical settings, knowing how to respond safely can protect lives and prevent panic in emergency situations.
