As I was giving a patient an injection I felt a poke on my hand, there was no skin breakage seen just a tiny tear to the glove. I know it should have been reported immediately but I got scared and after 3 days I finally reported it as my anxiety was killing me. It has been taken up the chain at the school, and I've been super nauseous and unable to eat for last 3 days because of worry and concern of being kicked out of the program.
