Johns Hopkins Armstrong Institute for Patient Safety and Quality is working with the Association for Professionals in Infection Control and Epidemiology to create PPE training videos. The videos will explain how to put on PPE and safely remove it, as well as how healthcare workers can monitor each other for safety during the process.

The three modules will be available for free on the CDC’s website next week and will also be available on iTunes U.

At the Becker's 11th Annual IT + Revenue Cycle Conference: The Future of AI & Digital Health, taking place September 14–17 in Chicago, healthcare executives and digital leaders from across the country will come together to explore how AI, interoperability, cybersecurity, and revenue cycle innovation are transforming care delivery, strengthening financial performance, and driving the next era of digital health.
