[MCOH-EH] how do you address needlesticks afterhours?

[Higazi, Patricia]

Our nursing administrative supervisors handle after hours calls following our protocol.  If they need to they will contact me but they can usually handle.  The employee follows up with us next business day and for follow up if necessary.

How does your institution address needlesticks after hours?  Do you have an on-line reporting system, do you have a designated on-call person, or do you use the Emergency Department?  Would love to hear from other institutions.

Regards,
Mary
