What’s Next for Accushield?

Respirator Fit Test

Respirator Protection is number 2 on the list of the most cited OSHA violations for the 2020-2021 fiscal year. OSHA requires a Respiratory Mask Fit Test during the onboarding of new staff at any nursing homes, assisted living, and other long-term care facilities.

Soon, you will be able to manage your respiratory mask fit program within Accushield.

  • Create a standard RFT program across your organization
  • Easily identify employees due for their annual respirator fit test
  • Remove compliance uncertainty with pre-built, OSHA-approved RFT Qualitative and Quantitative protocols

Group SMS

Future releases will support email, communication templates, advanced filtering, and the ability to view all messaging sent to an individual.

Dashboard

Settings pages that still need to be updated are Health Screening and Alerts, coming soon!
