Learning and practicing effective infection control skills will help the nursing assistant prevent the spread of microorganisms that can cause infectious diseases, and protect the health and safety of all those they care for, as well as co-workers and themselves. This program teaches new nursing assistants the important skills necessary for controlling the spread of infectious disease.
