Code: EBBAA

Adopted: 7/15/10

The district shall use standard precautions at all times for infection control. Each person is therefore treated as though an HIV, AIDS or HBV ^[1] infection exists.

The district shall develop an Exposure Control Plan that includes infection control procedures for staff and students.

Staff and students shall receive an annual in-service that includes correct procedures for cleaning up body fluid spills and for personal cleanup, appropriate disposal, immunization and personal hygiene, as well as the location and a content review of first-aid and clean-up kits. Kits shall be available for each room in the building and in each district vehicle.

In addition to an annual in-service, staff and students on a regular basis will receive HIV, AIDS and HBV information.

The information shall emphasize infection — how infection is spread as well as how it is not spread.
