Well,
I thought I knew this regulation by heart; and further thought that OSHA defined an employee for this standard to include medical students and residents and volunteers. But either I am missing something during my current read, or I am very wrong.
I have had several needle sticks of med students on rotation in the hospital and both the hospital and the medical school are refusing to cover the post -exposure testing and PEP stating it is the student's own responsibility. This is obviously a barrier to proper evaluation of the student.
Any thoughts here?
