    This video is of a nurse that suffered several needlestick injuries and contracted hepatitis C. Healthcare professionals have learned many new practices that can keep themselves as well as their patients safer.

    My fiancé just had a needle stick accident at work, the patient she was working on is positive hep c, we're waiting for the 12 week period for testings to be done, from the research I have done there is 10% chance of becoming infected, I hope the results come back negative, I fear for the worse :( pls pray for her

      thank you for asking, yes she is ok, she tested 3 times and all 3 times the results came negative thank god, this kinds of work accidents are really scary and not fun to go through, 100000 thoughts run through your head non stop, imo it makes the healthcare jobs not worth it!!!
