Incident Summary entered room where a medical procedure was taking place for a student requiring an insulin reading. After the procedure was performed on the diabetic student the needle was picked up by who after playing with the needle stated he injected himself. The needle was the lancing device that is used to obtain a blood sample from the student. Initial conversations with staff around this and the unsurity of whether this occured or not led to the Principal making a decision with the HOC to call Mother and notify her of the incident. Further investigation by the school nurse and myself led to the decision that there was no possible way the needle could be re-fired. mum was shown the device and reassured this one would not inflict a needle prick. Concern is that the needle used after this one for the injection of insulin is not a protected needle which could inflict a cross contamination if other students are present during the procedure.

I raced over and gently lowered her to the ground. Once on the ground she began convulsing which lasted a period of about 5 minutes until she began to lose conciousness. I was able to get her to respond and open her eyes quickly but her responses were very vague. She complained about pins and needles in both of her arms. She was placed in the recovery position and had her head/neck supported throughout this time. I continued to ask her questions and found that she had a fall from a horse on Saturday and was airlifted to the Mater Childrens and released on Monday. She said she had damaged ligaments in her shoulder/collarbone and could not remember if she was knocked out when she fell off the horse. A number of times whilst supporting her in the recovery position she complained about pain at the back of her head at the base of her skull.

The blood under the finger had dried and did not flow, but the blood under the toenail was still fluid, and exited the cavity under the nail under some considerable pressure. The toe has felt fine ever sincehe Doctor sent me for an X-ray of the finger, and the radiologist told me that it wasn't brokel()n the 20/01/2016 at 9.15am, I saw the Doctor again and she confirmed that the finger is not broken. She has restricted some of my work processes, but is allowing me to resume work on 21/01/2016.

Incident Summary Account as per t\t the end of the theory lesson the students were being instructed on how to generate a doughnut bandage. The box which contained the bandages also contained a training Epi pen. The students were going through the physical motions of the training epi pen. I ended up talking about the uses of an epi pen and how to use the device. The students were then moving around the classroom completing their doughnut bandages and getting another bandage to secure the doughnut bandage. I believe at that time one of the students picked up the extra epi pen (live), I was not aware that it was in the box, and attempted to inject it in to another student as part of the training epi pen procedure. The epi pen was live and slightly scratched the student drawing blood. The student injecting the epi pen attempted the injection in the forearm and not into a large muscle group and not held in as per procedure, therefore, there is little reason to suggest that a proper injection took place school nurse, walked by the class room and assessed the student. There was no immediate signs or symptoms of the injection and was therefore given the all clear from the nurse.
