Fire Safety
What should you do in case of a fire ?
Remember the acronym – RACE
Rescue – any people in danger
Alarm – activate the fire alarm
Contain – the fire by closing doors and windows
Extinguish – the fire if it is small enough
![Page 10: Patient Safety Monitoring in International Laboratories (SMILE) Program 1 Laboratory Safety A SMILE Program Presentation.](https://reader038.fdocuments.in/reader038/viewer/2022110304/551a06fe550346ad578b4568/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)

Fire Safety
How do you operate a fire extinguisher?
Remember PASS
Pull - the pin Aim – at the base of the Fire Squeeze - the handle Sweep - to cover the fire

Fire Safety
Maintenance of Fire ExtinguishersFire extinguishers should be visually inspected on a monthly basis.
The inspection should assure that Fire extinguishers are: In their assigned place Not blocked or hidden Pressure gauges show adequate
pressure Pins and seals are in place No signs of damage The nozzles are free of blockages

MSDS Sheets Continued……….
Need to check for updates annually Highlight the name of the chemical and the first
aid section for easy access in an emergency Organize in alphabetical order Must be available to everyone all of the time The internet is also a good way to access MSDS
sheets Instrument manufacturers usually have MSDS
sheets available on their websites.

SAFETY – Waste Disposal
Tips for safe disposal of laboratory waste:
Place all sharps in approved sharps containers Use goggles or full face shields to protect mucus
membranes from splashes when disposing of liquid waste or specimen tubes.
Refer to MSDS sheets for information on the safe disposal of chemicals

Bloodborne Pathogens
What are bloodborne pathogens?Viruses, bacteria or other micro-organisms that are carried in the
bloodstream and are capable of causing disease.
Other body fluids that can spread bloodborne pathogens include: Blood products (plasma, platelets) Abdominal fluids Amniotic fluids Cerebrospinal fluids Vaginal secretions Semen

Standard Precautions replaces Universal Precautions – using Standard Precautions all
blood and body fluids are treated as infectious all of the time.

How much PPE should you use?
Wear as much or as little as you anticipate you will need to prevent blood and other infectious
materials from contact with your skin, mucus membranes and clothing.
