Students injured during clinical and need immediate attention should be taken to the Emergency Services for care. Any expense incurred is the student's responsibility. The student should see their physician if the injury does not need immediate attention. Students are responsible for carrying their health insurance. Faculty must complete an Incident Report, https://www.lcn.edu/incident_report/form, for Lakeview and the clinical agency where the accident occurred.

Needlestick Injury
Needlesticks or any other injuries must be reported and investigated by the agency (where the incident occurred). When a needle stick occurs, the student should be taken to the nearest emergency room. The emergency room's policy/procedure for needlestick injuries should be followed. Any expense that is incurred is the student's responsibility.
In addition to the clinical site's procedure, Lakeview College of Nursing’s form, http://www.lcn.edu/incident_report/form, must be completed. College community members will be transported by car or ambulance to the nearest appropriate facility in an emergency.
