Exposure to infectious diseases/viruses is an inherent risk in any public location where people are present. Some diseases are more contagious than others and can lead to severe illness and death.

Benchmark Medical Services, LLC, its agents, members, contractors, suppliers, and guests cannot guarantee you will not be exposed during or as a result of participating in the on-site courses we provide. Therefore, by participating in an in-person class and any events, classes, or courses that may be related to one of our in-person classes, you voluntarily assume all risks related to exposure to any infectious disease/virus to which you may become exposed and, therefore, permanently hold harmless Benchmark, its volunteers, employees, agents, representatives, members, contractors, suppliers, and guests from all claims, demands, and causes of action which you or any respective heirs, executors, administrators, or assigns have or may have resulting in your voluntary participation.
