Bloodborne Cert

For Dental offices

Annual bloodborne pathogens training for your dental team

Buy a block of seats, invite people by email, and see who has finished on one page. About an hour per person, online, in English, Spanish or Amharic.

Who needs the training

Why

OSHA has no dentistry-specific standard; dental offices follow 29 CFR 1910.1030. Employees with occupational exposure to blood or saliva must be trained at hire and at least every 12 months (1910.1030(g)(2)(ii)), at no cost and during working hours (g)(2)(i).

Training must cover the elements in 1910.1030(g)(2)(vii). The practice adds its own exposure control plan and site specifics, and keeps training records for 3 years (1910.1030(h)(3)(ii)).

State rules. Some state dental boards require their own infection control course from a board-approved provider. California requires unlicensed dental assistants to pass the DANB Infection Control exam or complete an infection control course listed in Business and Professions Code 1755(b) before any procedure with potential exposure to blood or saliva; New York requires dentists and hygienists to complete state-approved infection control coursework every four years. This course does not replace those board courses, and they do not replace the annual OSHA training unless they cover the standard's required topics.

How seats work

  1. Buy a block of seats. One seat is one person.
  2. Invite each person by email from your dashboard, or hand out the seat codes.
  3. The dashboard shows who has finished, who is in progress, and each certificate number and retrain date. Export it as CSV for your records.
  4. Anyone can check a certificate by number at /verify.

What stays with you

The course covers the training elements in 29 CFR 1910.1030(g)(2)(vii). Your written exposure control plan, training on your own site specifics, and access to a knowledgeable person for questions remain the employer's responsibility.
