Needle Related Injuries Lawyer - d'Oliveira & Associates

Negligent storage practice or other irresponsible practices in the workplace can lead to needle-stick injuries. The Center for Disease control has estimated that every day a thousand health care workers are affected by needle-stick injuries. Such needle related injuries pose serious risks to health care professionals. Injuries may occur while treating patients and administering medication to patients, or during the cleanup and storage of equipment.

Dangers as a result of accidental needle-sticks may be present in several health care facilities. A person may be injured as a result of a needle-stick in doctor’s offices, hospitals, clinics, nursing homes, and labs. Health problems which may arise and dangers which needle injuries may present include:

  • Malaria
  • Tuberculosis
  • HIV/AIDS
  • Hepatitis B
  • Hepatitis C
  • Herpes
  • Diphtheria
