Tallman firefighters and Suffern firefighters attended their annual mandatory OSHA blood borne pathogen training last night. Jenni Solomon conducted the training, reviewed all the hazards facing the fire service during extrication calls, facilities with biohazards, assisting the EMT’s and Police, and decontamination of gear and equipment. This refresher is done annually as part of several OSHA mandated courses. As firefighters we face biohazards many times during the year, and this course keeps us as well as victims that we help safe during operations.
