  1. splashed with hep c blood

    Danielle1987 posted a topic in General Nursing
    Hey, yesterday I had to start an IV on a patient. I did not get it in and blood ended up splashing me over my stomach area. I had a contact gown on over my scrubs. I put pressure on the needle poke site and ended up getting blood on my wrist. My skin was intact. I ended up taking my gloves and gown off. I grabbed the patients blanket and grabbed from a non soiled spot and threw it in the laundry. I then washed my hands and wrist. When I cam to work the next day I found out that the patient has hep C. I was wondering if I am at a huge risk of catching it. The doctor had failed to put that the patient had hep c in the chart... feeling freaked out.
