HIV needle incident linked to cutbacks at Wyler
The Harvey infant Desiree Sloan was pricked by a dropped needle and tested negative for HIV, with officials blaming nursing staff cutbacks at Wyler Children’s Hospital. The unit houses 17 to 21 babies, and the unlicensed patient care technician involved worked on a floor with reduced RN staffing. The nurses association warned downsizing raises patient risk while University of Chicago hospitals pursue staff reductions.
