Abstract

This is an experience account on directions for the nursing team’s behavior in case of accidents by sharp

objects and body fluids during the Supervised Training Course II: Hospital Area, in a hospital in-patient unit of a big

hospital in Minas Gerais State/Brazil, from March to June 2007, with aides, technicians and nurses. A situational diagnosis

was developed during Training Course that resulted in the elaboration of a folder containing information on the procedures

to be followed in case of occupational accidents by sharp objects and body fluids, and dissemination of the information

contained in it through in-service education. The developed activity promoted nurses’ reflection on the importance of

prevention, reporting and understanding of the stages covered by the injured professional.
