Needlestick

This section tells you what to do immediately following a needlestick or contamination incident.

For you, needlestick injuries are always frustrating, boring and sometimes embarrassing. They occasionally represent a considerable risk to the recipient and are therefore very worrying for all concerned.

To us, needlestick management is a core element of our work - let us use our expertise to make things easier for you.

Further advice and support is available within office hours from the Occupational Health Service - Tel: 01752 762116 / 01179 232381.
