Job Safety
Safety Training Program from a healthcare staffing leader
At Aureus, the health and safety of each of our employees while on a travel
assignment is of utmost importance.
We take your safety and well-being seriously, which is why we’ve developed a
comprehensive Safety Training Program that is in accordance
with all current OSHA standards.
Completion of the program is required of each Aureus employee, including
travel nurses, travel PTs, travel OTs, other allied health professionals, and
advanced practice professionals, prior to being placed on a travel job
assignment nationwide. Your account manager will provide you with more
information on how to get started.
| Expressing Safety Concerns |
|
Should you ever have concerns about safety or patient care standards in any of
the facilities to which you are assigned, or observe what you believe to be
unsafe practices, promptly contact your client supervisor and Aureus to review
and follow-up on your observations and/or concerns. As an employee of Aureus,
you should feel free to report concerns about the safety and quality of care
provided in healthcare facilities to the Joint Commission on Accreditation of
Healthcare Organizations without any fear of adverse consequences or
disciplinary action by Aureus.
The Joint Commission phone: (630) 792-5000.
