Health Biosafety Training is a training course aimed at all operators who, in various ways, are involved in the management of biocontainment procedures.

Specific objective of the Training is the activity of simulation and continuous training support to the personnel involved.

The activities include periodic training cycles in order to maintain and validate the levels of preparation and response, through specific assessment tests. The World Health Organization itself declares, in fact, that the simulation tool is “useful” if its implementation is critically evaluated in order to identify areas of improvement.

cit. “Realistic training simulations are a useful tool and must be evaluated critically to identify areas that can be improved. “WHO. Public health response to biological weapons: WHO guidance (2004). Geneva: World Health Organization”.

Health Biosafety Training has the objective of creating training plans having as object both the devices and the procedures to be used in situations of:

• out-of-hospital management of infected or potentially infected patients;
• transport of infected or potentially infected patients;

In both cases we will evaluate biological agents of Class III and IV, the latter listed in Annex XLVI to Legislative Decree April 9, 2008 n. 81.

The above is substantiated by taking into account both health emergencies in place at international level, and experiences in transport and management in high biocontainment, “Technical Document on Protective Measures for the Protection of Health in Operations of Transport and Out-of-Hospital Management of Infected Patients or potentially infected with class IV biological agents” of the Ministry of Health, Directorate General for Health Prevention 0035824- of 07/12/2015- DGPRE-DGPRE-P.
