Before the incident
As I was placing an IV on a patient I was stabilizing her R arm with my left hand using my R hand to advance IV. Unfortunately the IV placement failed and I needed to remove IV. At that point she jerked her arm and as a result my L pointer finger got poked. When I took off my glove I could see the needle prick and blood. The IV had been in her vein so I had been exposed to her blood. I immediately then washed my hands with soap and water and put on a bandaid. I let my assistant nurse manager know as well as my infection control nurse. I went downstairs to our ED and followed procedure to have labs drawn and the source patient also had her labs drawn too.
