When it comes to handling and transporting sensitive medical specimens, safety isn't just a preference—it’s a responsibility. At LyfeFlight Med, we take that responsibility seriously. That’s why our team is Bloodborne Pathogen (BBP) Certified, ensuring safe and compliant transport of biological materials in line with OSHA standards.

What Are Bloodborne Pathogens?

Bloodborne pathogens are infectious microorganisms found in blood and other bodily fluids that can cause serious diseases like Hepatitis B, Hepatitis C, and HIV. These materials can be present in:

  • Blood samples
  • Urine and stool specimens
  • Used sharps or swabs
  • Tissue or biopsy samples

Why BBP Certification Is Essential for Medical Couriers

Most people think of labs and hospitals when they think of BBP risks—but the transport chain is just as critical. Here's why certification matters:

âś” Proper Handling of Specimens

Certified couriers are trained to handle, store, and transport medical materials using personal protective equipment (PPE) and proper containment methods to prevent exposure or contamination.

âś” Compliance with OSHA and Healthcare Standards

BBP certification ensures that couriers understand and follow the OSHA Bloodborne Pathogens Standard (29 CFR 1910.1030). This is not just about compliance—it’s about creating a safe environment for patients, healthcare workers, and the public.

âś” Peace of Mind for Clients


When you trust LyfeFlight Med, you're choosing a team that’s trained, certified, and committed to maintaining the highest safety standards in every delivery.
