Summary & Application

This final lesson serves as a comprehensive review of the key concepts presented throughout the course and offers learners a structured opportunity to reflect on how they will integrate these principles into their daily clinical practice. From understanding the scope of needlestick injuries to applying prevention strategies and managing post-exposure care, learners will be guided through a brief recap of each module’s core takeaways.

The lesson reinforces the idea that preventing sharps injuries requires more than following procedures — it demands ongoing vigilance, a culture of safety, and an empowered workforce. Learners are encouraged to evaluate their own work environments, habits, and communication practices, and to identify at least one specific action they can implement immediately to reduce exposure risk.

The final section includes an optional learner reflection, knowledge checkpoint, and links to post-course resources that can be used in the field, including OSHA standards, reporting templates, and printable safety posters.
