Hospital Decontamination: Personal Protective Equipment (PPE)

does your facility maintain in appropriate quantities to protect all responding decontamination team personnel against unknown hazards? Does your facility’s plan call for the use of 2-3 inch tape to cover all open/exposed areas of protective suiting? Does your facility maintain an inventory of fully charged, routinely tested PAPR batteries? The hospital decontamination self-assessment app intended for use by hospital emergency preparedness planners, hospital decontamination team members, and other personnel with responsibility for their facility’s decontamination plans and procedures. The app is designed to walk the user through the emergency management cycle of a hospital response to a hazardous materials incident requiring decontamination of patients. The Hospital Decontamination: Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) mobile app allows you to replace your paper checklist with an Android or iPhone. The mobile form includes fields to document items such as date, hospital, department/ unit, staff's name, and title and captures staff signature. Once the mobile app is filled out a secure PDF is generated. The PDF is easy to share, and a copy is stored in your account for your decontamination records. You can also use the App Builder to personalize and customize this mobile form.
