What is a HEPA (high-efficiency particulate air) respirator and what does it have to do with me?
As of Jan. 6, HEPA respirators have everything to do with you. They affect how you perform your job or run your EMS service. And they definitely affect your service's bottom line. Whether you're a street provider, the president of an ambulance company or a fire chief, you need to know about TB exposure and HEPA respirator regulations.
