When researching these organizations, you will find and collect information about what these organizations do, the role that they play in healthcare, examples of how these organizations impact the healthcare field, and any other interesting information.
Once you have gathered enough information, you will create a slideshow presentation. In this presentation, you should dedicate a minimum or one full slide to each organization, so a minimum of eight informational slides. Add one slide at the end of the presentation that cites your sources.
How you choose to organize and display your research is completely up to you as long as you meet the information requirements outlined above. You may use short blurbs of text, charts, graphs, images, etc. Make sure to include the name of each organization at the top of each slide.
Additionally, when researching OSHA and CDCP, you will find and collect information on personal safety procedures and regulations including standard precautions. You will use this information to create a short video demonstrating these personal safety procedures and standard precautions.
For your video, you will record yourself demonstrating personal safety procedures and standard precautions according to the OSHA and CDCP guidelines. You are free to get as creative as you like with this video, using props, signs, or volunteer friends and family members to help you create an informative and interesting video.
