Please read the scenario below and answer all four of the
questions in your response. If you do not know the answer to one of
the questions posed what additional information do you need to
better understand the situation.
A female blood drawer works alone in a clinic. It is almost time
to close for lunch when a patient arrives for a blood test. The
blood drawer is flustered because she has a special date for
lunch She is dressed up for the occasion, wearing a nice dress
and high heels. She looks nice except for a large scratch on her
left wrist that she got while playing with her cat that morning.
.She quickly draws the patient's blood. As she turns to put the
specimen in a rack, she slips and falls, and one of the tubes
breaks. She does not get cut, but blood splashes everywhere,
including on her left wrist.
1.-What is the first thing the phlebotomist should do?
2- How did the phlebotomist's actions contribute to this
accident?
3-what should she have done that might have prevent exposure
despite the tube breaking?
4-what type of exposure did she receive?
