Fit Testing (N-95)

At HealthOps, our Fit Testing Program is designed to help hospitals and healthcare facilities meet critical safety and compliance standards, including OSHA regulations and The Joint Commission requirements. By ensuring that respirators fit securely, we protect healthcare workers while supporting facilities in maintaining accreditation and regulatory compliance.

Our Fit Testing Program involves conducting OSHA-compliant qualitative respirator fit tests to verify that N95 respirators provide a proper seal. This ensures maximum protection for healthcare workers against airborne contaminants. Key components of the program include:
