Eye Wash Station: Difference between revisions

Latest revision as of 21:42, 2024 August 13

Whatever is discussed in here likely also applies to Fire Extinguisher.

for all	Doug pointed out that we may not have good documentation on these, let's change that. Here is a start... This should contain instructions on how to use the eye wash stations. It should probably also include whom to notify, and a link to the incident form, since use of a wash station would warrant a form. Maybe the form is how we find out that they were used, too. As much as that is internal info, I think it might also be good to add if we have spares on hand, and possibly where we get them.

for all	We'll either need to find a way to link this to most rooms, or better yet, make it eye hazard dependent and link it that way... TT needs to think about this some more. There is a maps functionality for the wiki, and it can use any base map we want with coordinates. So we would be able to display e.g. tools or safety equipment via coordinate. I had thought about adding this initially but decided not to follow that squirrel for now. Let me know if I should reconsider that. Ttenbergen (talk) 22:42, 2024 August 13 (CDT) Rooms and locations listed for convenience, there's probably a better way to do this in terms of the Wiki. John has also taken photos of the locations in case that's helpful later. That would be helpful later, because for the map we would probably encode each as its own "tool" (even if that stretches that category a bit), so a photo on there would be helpful.

North Forge supplies eye wash stations for use in case of eye irritation. If you use the eye wash station, please fill out an Incident Report Form.

Use

Remove the lid
If only one eye is affected, tilt your head so that the affected eye is lower. This prevents contaminants from being washed into the unaffected eye.
Hold the bottle against your face over the eye and squeeze.
While squeezing, move your eyeball around to access as much of the surface as possible.
If necessary, also raise your eyelids using a finger to dislodge any contaminants under the eyeball.
