EE was starting an IV and was distracted by other co-worker talking to her and accidently stuck herself in the right thumb with the contaminated needle.

I was attempting to insert an IV in a patient. Surgical staff entered the room asking me questions about another patient that they were going to take down to surgery. This was distracting and I ended up accidentally sticking myself after sticking the patient.
