The Center's free surveillance database - the Exposure Prevention Information Network (EPINet) - has informed the data-driven interventions, controls, and programs that protect those working in healthcare.The International Safety Center is committed to improving the safety of healthcare workers worldwide and re-launched in 2014 (originally the International Healthcare Worker Safety Center at the University of Virginia) with renewed focus on reducing exposures to bloodborne and infectious pathogens.
