While I was at work, I just gave my patient with insulin pen and after the administration, when I was about to recap the needle, little did I know that the needle was a bit bent and the needle went through the cap and that was the moment I pricked myself with a used needle. Im really scared since my patient has a liver cirrhosis and as I used to learn that some patient with liver cirrhosis might also have hepatitis. I checked the history of the patient but I cant find a proof or basis that the patient has a hepatitis. I havent reported this to my co workers yet since Im really scared. Can you help me about this case?

Thank you for sharing your experience! I chose Health Carousel as my agency. What's yours?

I am a Filipino newly grad nurse. I was advised that as early as possible, I should start making plans with my career especially in planning to work abroad since working in our country for a long time may not gave you a sufficient amount of salary. As of now, I'm on the process for NCLEX with the help of an agency. However, I'm still in dilemma since I have some cousins working in Germany and I also wanted to be with them. Aside from that, I'm really interested in learning German too. But I have already signed a contract with my agency for NCLEX. I cant decline and back out from my agency since I wouldn't want to encounter breach of contract issues. I would like to know if it is possible for me to work to other countries such as Germany after taking and passing NCLEX? (then upon finishing the contract, I'll just continue my process for US) OR should I just stick with one country only? I would like to know your opinions or experiences regarding with this. Thank you!

I want to know the pros and cons of each of the mentioned countries in terms of their work environment, salary and cost of living.
