You have been providing support to this client for some time, but they had a fall recently which has left them with a large open wound on their leg. The open wound on their leg is infected and the client notes state that they have been diagnosed with VRE (Vancomycin-resistant Enterococci). VRE is highly contagious.
You realise that there is a heavy box (or similar item) obstructing the client from having safe access to the bathroom. You must address this hazard in your role in line with manual handling procedures and work instructions.
Due to the changes in your client’s situation and the environment (manual handling and infection) you will need to fill in new risk assessment before you start work.
After addressing the manual handling hazard, you notice that you have accidently touched the client’s leg, when doing this you will discover that the integrity of your glove has been breached and you suspect that fluid from the wound has been transferred to your skin. You will need to respond and take immediate action to rectify the situation and follow up by reporting the incident. You should follow the WHS policy and procedure manual to do so.
Your client will also display some challenging behaviours during your morning routine which you will need to respond to and report.
