Injuries and illnesses <br /> that do not require immediate medical care shall be treated at the selected medical care facilities. <br /> The EMS shall be summoned in the event of moderate to severe physical injury, which requires <br /> immediate emergency care. Figure 2, "Hospital Route Map." In all cases, the SS/SHSO, or <br /> approved designee, shall accompany the injured worker to the appropriate medical care facility. <br /> Figure 3, "Core Health Services Medical Facility Route Map," contains a map from the site to <br /> the Core Health Services medical clinic, if it is necessary to assist in transporting personnel with <br /> minor injuries or illnesses. <br /> The route to the hospital and the selected urgent care facility shall be posted in the office. <br /> 8.4 Personal Exposure or Injury <br /> The following procedures will be implemented in the event of a personal injury (other than first <br /> aid only). <br /> 8.4.1 Serious Exposures or Injuries Requiring Transport by Ambulance <br /> The SS/SHSO (or designee) will provide support to emergency responders and dedicate <br /> appropriate project resources to the response effort. <br /> Upon the realization that an individual(s) needs medical care with transport by ambulance, the <br /> following procedure will be used when applicable: <br /> • Administer first aid and contact the SS to arrange for dispatch of the EMS. <br /> • When the situation has been stabilized, decontaminate the injured person (if necessary; <br /> however, there are probably no situations at the site where it would be critical to <br /> decontaminate personnel prior to the administration of medical treatment). Do not perform <br /> decontamination if it interferes with emergency treatment, such as in a life-threatening <br /> situation. <br /> • Notify the HSM. <br /> • Move the person to the support area if there is no risk of further injury. <br /> 8-3 <br />
