M10.5: OSHA

I looked into OSHA, the Occupational Safety and Health Administration, which is a federal program within the Department of Labor.  OSHA oversees workplace safety in many different ways, but I chose to specifically look at the healthcare workers section on its website.  This subarea talks about building a workplace culture of safety, not only from an "office" standpoint as far as ergonomics and things of that nature, but also in the areas of patient safety, infectious diseases, workplace violence, and other hazards that may be specific to the field of healthcare.
