Healthcare Hazard Control and Safety Management Training in Machakos, Kenya
Classroom training in Machakos · next cohort Nov 2, 2026 · from USD 1,600
Hospitals and clinics expose staff, patients and visitors to a wider mix of hazards than most workplaces, from needlestick injuries and airborne pathogens to cytotoxic drugs, radiation and patient handling strain. The week opens with structured hazard identification and risk assessment for wards, theatres, laboratories and support services. You then apply the hierarchy of controls, covering engineering measures, safe work procedures and the selection and use of personal protective equipment. A full day on infection prevention and control addresses standard and transmission-based precautions, hand hygiene, sterilisation and healthcare waste management.
Later sessions examine staff safety, including workplace violence, fatigue, sharps injury reporting and safety induction for new employees. The final day looks at building a just safety culture, conducting inspections and audits, and meeting occupational safety and health regulations. Facility walk-through exercises and incident case reviews connect each topic to daily clinical practice. Nurses, clinical managers, infection control officers, facility managers and safety committee members will find the content directly applicable. You leave with a hazard register template, a control plan for your unit and the confidence to lead safety improvements.

About this course
This course provides practitioners with core competencies and practical tools in healthcare hazard control and safety management training, combining theoretical frameworks with field-tested approaches drawn from real-world projects.
Participants engage with case studies, complete hands-on exercises, and develop implementation plans they can apply directly to their own work.
Throughout the programme, participants work through realistic scenarios drawn from industrial sites, construction operations, healthcare facilities, and regulated workplace environments, examining how healthcare hazard control and safety management is applied in practice and where it most often breaks down. Delegates will develop practical skill in designing appropriate frameworks, selecting and applying the right tools for hazard control measures, interpreting findings, and communicating conclusions clearly to colleagues, management and external stakeholders. Sessions move deliberately from principles to application, so that each technique introduced is practised against a realistic problem before the programme moves on — strengthening both individual effectiveness and the wider capability of the organizations delegates return to.
Training Objectives
By the end of this course, participants will be able to:
- Develop robust healthcare hazard control and safety management frameworks that support successful implementation and measurable outcomes.
- Analyze performance using recognized evaluation methods drawn from hazard control measures.
- Design practical systems that strengthen accountability, transparency and evidence generation.
- Evaluate outcomes and assess longer-term impact across a range of operating contexts.
- Apply relevant tools, frameworks and analytical methodologies confidently and appropriately.
- Integrate staff safety and training into existing organizational processes and reporting structures.
