Incident reports for exposures and broken equipment.
When someone is exposed or a machine breaks, it is reported on the phone or the desk: what happened, when, who was exposed, the first aid given, and whether the manager was told. A manager closes the report, and it is kept.
Incident reports
What it does.
Exposure or equipment
Two kinds of report, each with what it needs.
Out of service at once
A broken machine can be taken out of service from the report.
Photos, with care
No patient in the frame, and no chart or day sheet.
Closed by a manager
Every change kept in the report’s history.
