A-4 Baseline Institutional Injury Profile WorksheetThis worksheet is designed to help healthcare organizations organize baseline data on sharps injuries and identify priorities for intervention. Data elements include the occupations of injured healthcare personnel, devices associated with injuries, injury rates, and injury circumstances. This worksheet is not designed to lead organizations to conclusions about prevention activities. Rather, the intent is to use the worksheet as a discussion tool for setting priorities for intervention. Information for this worksheet is based on data collected in Appendix A-7, the Sample Blood and Body Fluid Exposure Report Form . Facilities that are not using a similar form may not have information on specific categories included in this worksheet. In that situation, the categories should be modified to reflect information currently collected by the facility.
