OSHA states that all employers must make safety devices available
to all employees. But I don't know that this will solve the issue with
this family. Why do they not want a safety device used? What is the
problem.

Have a situation where a family member wants the nurses in a long term care facility to use lancets for their mother that are not safety. Can anyone tell me how and where to find the law that states that all needle devices must be safety? Thanks in advance for the info as do not have the time to research on the web myself. This is why this site is wonderful, those of us that don't know can contact those that do.
