As people living in a modern society, there are plenty of laws and regulations that we must know, understand, and abide by.
But working in healthcare, that list of laws and regulations that we must know grows exponentially. Which is why, for this lab, you will be researching and creating a “cheat sheet” or “cliff notes” version of the governing regulatory agencies in healthcare.
You will start by researching and collecting information on the following:
• World Health Organization (WHO)
• Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDCP)
• Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA)
• U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA)
• The Joint Commission
• National Institute of Health
• Clinical Laboratory Improvement Amendments (CLIA)
• The International Organization for Standardization (ISO)
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.
