The case study shows that the error that Susan made in preparing the injection is that she should have used safety needles.

<h3>How to analyze the vase study?</h3>

1. Susan should have used safety needles for the intramuscular injection technique rather than using non-safety style.

2. The tests that must be performed due to needlestick injury are HIV, Hepatitis B, and Hepatitis C infections.

3. Based on the information given, Linda can be stated responsible as she should have used the safety needles and the medical negligence could be avoided by being more careful about disposing of the needle and syringe after use. She should know the impact and should be aware that she is negligent.

4. Under OSHA's bloodborne pathogen standards, the employers having employees with exposure to blood or other potentially infectious materials must train the employees annually regardless of the employees' prior training or education.

Bloodborne pathogens and needlesticks are addressed in specific OSHA standards. Therefore, this pertains to OSHA's Bloodborne Pathogens Standards.
