Non-Employee Onsite Exposure or Injury
As the largest academic medical center in the state of Alabama, UAB not only has a large number of employees, it also has many contractors, visitors, and other non-employees who provide onsite services or participate in activities throughout the campus and medical center complex. Any non-UAB employee (contractor, visitor, volunteer, minor, etc.) who experience an exposure or injury requiring immediate medical treatment while onsite at UAB is responsible for all costs associated with the provision of such care. Non-UAB employees should consult with their employers about their specific process for reporting exposures or injuries while providing onsite services at UAB.
Students
Students who experience an exposure or injury requiring immediate medical treatment while providing services or participating in activities onsite should contact UAB Employee Health (see chart below) for triage options. Depending on the type of exposure or injury, students may be seen at UAB Employee Health or sent to Student Health & Wellness or The WorkPlace.
