The Role of Community Health Nurses in Promoting Occupational Health and Safety Awareness within Facilities by Embracing Modern Distance Learning Techniques

Abstract

Overall, accessibility, engagement, and cost-effectiveness can all be significantly impacted by the use of remote learning for occupational health and safety training. In order to make significant progress toward raising occupational health and safety awareness within facilities, it is critical to deal with any potential roadblocks and implement plans that will optimize its effectiveness. Using remote learning for occupational health and safety training of facility staff presents both potential benefits and challenges with regard to raising safety awareness and improving occupational health. Community health nurses play a critical role in improving health and wellness in local communities (CHNs). Workplace health and safety is another area where this is pertinent, particularly for smaller businesses located in impoverished areas where access to occupational health professionals may be limited. By utilizing contemporary remote learning technology, CHNs can serve as effective advocates for and teachers of personnel on critical safety procedures. Thus, the purpose of this study was to examine the role of community health nurses in promoting occupational health and safety awareness within facilities by embracing modern distance learning techniques.
