Superior- Higher
Inferior- Lower
Distal- Further away from the midline
Proximal- Closer to the midline
Posterior (dorsal)- Back
Anterior (ventral)- Front
Medial- towards the mid line
Lateral- Away from the midline
The dog is inferior to the girl. The dog’s posterior is anterior to the girl. The dogs leash is superior to his collar. The girl left leg is distal to her right leg. Her left arm is distal from her body holding the leash.

Describe universal precautions. Using information from current world events, locate and describe a situation that demonstrates why all healthcare professionals must be skilled in using universal precautions. Include information about proper disposal of bio-waste.
Universal precautions are practiced in hospitals, schools, etc. This includes polices on caring for wounds, clean ups, and disposing of medical supplies. Universal precautions are a way in which all-human blood and bodily fluids are treated as if they were infectious with HBV, HIV, and other blood-borne pathogens (OHSA, 2016).
If any blood or bodily fluids are exposed which may include: vaginal secretions, synovial fluid, pericardial fluid, semen, pleural fluid, amniotic fluid, cerebrospinal fluid, saliva, and peritoneal fluid the following precautions are required in using: gloves, gowns, and masks (OHSA, 2016).
Other methods used to control infectious body substances are known as Body Substance Isolation (BSI). This approach defines all bodily fluids as being infected (OHSA, …show more content…
Environmental Health & Safety will pick up all box-bag units on a weekly basis (EHS, 2016).
As for liquid waste the sanitary sewer was created for the proper disposal of certain liquid waste. This method reduces the chances of spills or leaks when transporting and cost. It may be poured down the drain with running water after it has gone through the proper decontamination by autoclave or chemical procedures. Human blood and bodily fluids does not have to be treated before being drained, however the sink should be rinsed and disinfected after proper disposal (EHS, 2016).
Biomedical waste is transported, stowed, and treated by EPD approved facilities with valid operating permits. Biomedical waste is recognized, as a solid waste is disposed only at permitted solid waste disposal facilities. Proper treatment consists of: incineration, decontamination (with heat or steam under pressure), or other procedures approved by the Director of the EPD. Fluids or semisolid waste such as blood/blood products, secretions, exudates, body fluids containing free liquids can be disposed at a municipal sewer treatment only if it provides secondary treatment of waste (GE Cap,
