Which of the following is NOT a post-exposure step?

• A. Verbally notify supervisor
• B. Complete UF 100, UF 101, UF 136
• C. Medical eval is made available
• D. Wear gloves for 24 hours after exposure

Answer: (D)

After an exposure, the steps focus on getting the incident documented and ensuring medical assessment and follow-up. Verbally notifying your supervisor ensures immediate awareness and action. Completing the specific exposure forms (UF 100, UF 101, UF 136) provides essential documentation of what happened, who was involved, and the details of the exposure. Making a medical evaluation available ensures you receive appropriate care, testing, and any necessary prophylaxis. Wearing gloves for 24 hours after exposure is not a required post-exposure step; gloves are part of routine PPE during contact, but there is no mandated 24-hour glove-wearing requirement after an exposure in the post-exposure protocol.
