[MCOH-EH] BBP exposures after hours

[Deanna Prater]

We built the consent into our our admission process.  Every patient that 
comes in is asked "In the event that a health care worker has a 
needlestick or other exposure to your blood or body fluid, do you 
consent to testing..."  This way if it is someone under anesthesia etc., 
we can initiate the process.

>Our policy is to; 1 require remote workers to follow the same P&P as on site as we reserve the right to bring them on site. 2. We only do annual tests on a subset of healthcare workers who have increased exposure risk

>Hello,

>For those organizations that have the ED manager their after-hours BBP exposures, do you obtain consent from the source patient to review their record for the lab results the next business day? If you do obtain consent, is the ED obtaining that consent?
