This Legionella Training programme increases awareness of the dangers of legionella bacteria.
Highlighting the importance of regular maintenance and monitoring of systems where they may be found, it is designed to help everyone understand the risks of exposure to legionella bacteria. The course is particularly useful for those who are responsible for protecting an organisation from this kind of bacterial contamination; particularly people who manage, control or monitor the risk of exposure (as well as those responsible for record keeping.)
The course looks
at what legionella bacteria are and where
they can be found, as well as how legionella spreads and
how these bacteria can affect health – concentrating
particularly on Legionnaires’ disease and the symptoms to look
out for.
Although
Legionnaire’s disease is usually easily treated with antibiotics, it can lead
to long term health problems and even death. Between 2011 and
2013, 84 people in the UK died from harmful Legionella bacteria.
Make sure you and your colleagues know what to look out for and learn how to
protect your organisation from Legionella bacteria with our online Legionella
Awareness Training course.
