HFE has been calling for the introduction of pan-European binding measures for the protection of both healthcare workers and patients from needlestick and other medical sharps injuries. In this respect, HFE wants to celebrate with the EU’s health champions and supporters what has finally become a Directive implementing the Framework Agreement on the prevention from sharp injuries in the hospital and healthcare sector concluded by HOSPEEM and EPSU.
