Hazard report. Still getting stuck--protective devices alone won't always prevent needlestick injuries.
Despite widespread use of needlestick-prevention devices (NPDs), staff injuries can occasionally occur, often because of improper technique or device failure. Although no protective device is 100% effective, hospitals can limit injuries by ensuring that their needlestick-prevention programs incorporate ongoing staff education on the use of NPDs as well as on proper handling and disposal of sharps.
