When and where eyewash stations are required in a healthcare facility is one of the more frequent issues with which healthcare professionals struggle, according to an article on the FacilityCare website.
There aren’t many locations that actually require eyewash stations.
Eyewash stations are required wherever there is a possibility that caustic or corrosive chemicals could splash into an individual’s eye, the article said. Blood and body fluids are not considered to be caustic or corrosive.
And the use of face shields, glasses or goggles does not exempt a facility from its need for an eyewash station.
