Workshop
Infection Prevention: Protecting Everyone (Even from Themselves) with PPE
Drs. Kathy Jorgensen, Minden Buswell and Ms. Leslie Kollman

/

We will explore how pathogens spread across species and what this means for PPE use in all types of animal care facilities and farm environments. We will cover transmission precautions, how PPE aligns with transmission precautions, donning and doffing, and current infection prevention and control (IPC) & biosecurity practices all while highlighting real-world challenges veterinary professionals and farmworkers face when using PPE. Participants will also examine how risk perception, education, and trust influence PPE adoption. This workshop will include practical hands-on exercises in donning and doffing, IPC and biosecurity practices. LIMITED SPACE AVAILABLE! 4 CE credits | $40/person; includes afternoon break
