Very clear

Depends on the Sharps situation
Use of Sharps is not always in a controlled environment, no reference to how best to deal with discarded sharps when you have no sharps bins or needle caps. Needle sweeps would be a 'specialist' operation.
good to get upto date.

Good course but it's just common sense really.
No relevance to a meter installers role
We do not handle any of this equipment, nor do we work in a medical environment. This is not a relevant training course. If we get pricked by a needle on the job, then that should be covered in 1st aid and reporting of injuries.

Sharp and informative.
There are roughly 100,000 sharps injuries a year, which could have serious repercussions in the form of Blood – Borne Viruses such as Hepatitis B, Hepatitis C or HIV. Thus, employers have a legal duty to preform Risk Assessments and also to train staff, while employees have a duty to comply with policies and procedures. There are best practices which includes the handling and disposal of Sharps into the correct coloured bins.
