Description
Clean facilities, proper practitioner hygiene, procedures to ensure client safety, and disease prevention protocols have long been a cornerstone of professional massage and bodywork practice. The outbreak and rapid spread of coronavirus-19 (COVID-19) highlights the need for renewed attention and increased vigilance in these areas as states lift stay-at-home orders (also called stay-in-place orders) and massage and bodywork practitioners return to practice. This course intends to provide a resource to massage and bodywork professionals to support public protection. Upon completion of this course (Client Safety and Disease Prevention During COVID-19), you will be able to learn:
- Describe the transmission of COVID-19.
- List the cleaning and disinfecting products approved for use in massage therapy settings to prevent the spread of COVID-19.

- Review the policies and procedures to decrease health risks while COVID-19 is present in communities.
