GOOK 22 Pace 41 <br />DC-251 (Revised January 2009) <br />The following procedures are to be followed when an inmate sustains an injury while on <br />work assignment for an agency: <br />1) if the injury is serious or life threatening: the agency will contact <br />EMS and have the injured inmate transported to the nearest medical facility. <br />The agency must immediately notify the inmate's prison facility of the <br />incident. <br />2) If the injury is non-serious or is non-life threatening: When the agency has <br />trained first aid personnel on-site at the time the inmate is injured, they may <br />provide the inmate first aid, and immediately notify the inmate's prison <br />facility of the incident. <br />3) If the injury is non-serious or is non-life threatening: and the agency does not <br />have trained first aid personnel onsite to render first aid that may be needed, <br />the agency is to transport the inmate to the nearest medical facility for <br />treatment and immediately notify the inmate's prison facility of the incident. <br />4) If the injury is non-serious or is non-life threatening: and the agency can not <br />provide first aid or transportation to the nearest medical facility, the agency is <br />to immediately notify the inmate's prison facility to transport the innate for <br />first aid. <br />When any inmate injury occurs on a labor contract project, whether first-aid and/or medical <br />assistance is rendered, the agency is to provide the inmate's prison facility written documentation <br />of the incident as soon as possible. <br />VII.
