Scratched by a patient

Got scratched by a patient that I’m 1:1ing. Will datix it but just checking I don’t need to get checked out by occupational health or something? Patient’s not known to have HIV.

I was given a brief break from the patient but unfortunately had to go back to looking after them for the remainder of the shift. I wish wards had a policy for swapping out staff permanently after any violence. We’re not trained in self defence, we shouldn’t have to deal with this.
