The most dangerous and critical safety risks in health cares is the exposure to (BBP) Bloodborne Pathogens. When in contact with blood or OPIM, you must wash hands or any other skin that got contaminated with soap and water. All health cares should have specially designed, puncture-resistant containers made to safely store used needles, broken glass, scalpels and other sharp objects use on patients. This will reduce the risk of exposure to BBP or any other infections that's related.

   The top three infections that can occur if exposed to BBPs are...

1. Immunodeficiency Virus(HIV): is a condition in which progressive failure of the immune system allows life-threating opportunistic infections and can cancers to thrive.

2. Hepatitis B: a condition that permanently scars of the liver.

3. Hepatitis C: is liver cancer but it's also bloodborne virus.

   The greatest risk of infection comes from percutaneous injuries by contaminated scraps or poke by a needle stick. All health care provider should always wear protective gear such as face mask, goggles, and gloves before coming in contact with patient or materials expose to BBP. Employees should never manually compress trash do to that needles can punctured the bag cause to poke you exposing you to BBP risk. Always be caution when handling laundry because a contaminated needle can be hidden within the sheets. Do not bend needles and always dispose needle and other materials in it designated area properly as its explains in the OSHA manual.
