Kyrene Elementary School District Bloodborne Pathogens School district employees need to be aware of the potential danger of bloodborne diseases and how to protect themselves from them -- even though most employees are not exposed to bloodborne diseases while performing their jobs.

The Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) Bloodborne Pathogens Standard (29 CFR )

The Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) Bloodborne Pathogens Standard The Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) Bloodborne Pathogens Standard The Kyrene School District’s carrier for risk insurance, The Arizona School Risk Retention Trust, has developed a compliance manual. Our Exposure Control Plan, developed in accordance with OSHA, describes who is covered under the Standard, what prevention and control measures we use, and what protective equipment we will provide to you. It also describes our procedures, training information, and record keeping.

Bloodborne pathogens can cause infection by entering the body in a variety of ways, including: Open cuts, nicks or sticks by sharp objects (broken glass, sharp metal, needles, knives) Inflamed skin & acne The mucous membranes of the mouth, eyes or nose (through splash or splatter of blood or other body fluids) Illegal intravenous drug use Sexual contact An infected mother to her baby MODES OF TRANSMISSION OF BLOODBORNE PATHOGENS

Tasks or procedures performed by employees that can potentially expose an employee to blood or other body fluids include:  Rendering medical treatment/providing first-aid  Performing life-saving activities  Handling of potentially infected persons  Performing clean-up or decontamination procedures involving blood or other potentially infectious material MODES OF TRANSMISSION OF BLOODBORNE PATHOGENS

Wash your hands with soap after any body fluid contact Never touch anyone else’s blood; always wear disposable gloves when you anticipate that you might have contact with blood or contaminated items/surfaces Always refer bleeding children to health office personnel If a child vomits in class, call the custodian for clean up Basic precautions can be taken to reduce the risks of contracting bloodborne diseases: Basic Precautions

Exposures to blood and other body fluids occur across a wide variety of occupations. The pathogens of most concern are the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV), hepatitis B virus (HBV) and hepatitis C virus (HCV). Employees are urged to implement work practices to prevent exposure to blood and other body fluids. KEEP YOURSELF SAFE! Basic Precautions

Actions to take and persons to contact If you have an exposure to blood or other body fluids while on the job, immediately report the incident to your supervisor, to your school health assistant, and to the Employee Benefits Administrator in Human Resource Services. Once you have reported an exposure incident, an investigation will be started immediately. You, and possibly others at the scene, will be asked to provide information describing the incident. This information will be documented on a written Exposure Incident Evaluation Form. At your request, a copy of this documentation will be provided to you.

Actions to take and persons to contact Reporting an exposure incident immediately is very important. Medical evaluation and follow-up are available to you once you are exposed. If you consent, you will be provided, at no cost, with: Blood tests to screen for HBV and HIV A confidential medical evaluation Post-exposure preventive treatment and counseling, if medically indicated There will also be an attempt to obtain a blood sample from the source individual to provide the HBV and HIV status of that person to your treating health care professional.

Actions to take and persons to contact While there is no cure for Hepatitis B, vaccine does exist that can prevent infection. The OSHA Standard requires employers to offer the three-injection Hepatitis B vaccination series to all employees who could be exposed to blood or other potentially infectious materials as part of their daily job duties. Immunizations are available for Kyrene employees identified as being at increased risk of exposure. Contact Human Resource Services, Employee Benefits, for more information. If you are not eligible for the District-paid immunizations, you may contact your doctor to ask about the vaccine and protect yourself.
