Blood and Body Fluid (BBF) Hotline
Any exposure to blood or body fluids should be called in to the BBF hotline at 919-684-8115 as soon as possible. Exposures include, but are not limited to, needle sticks, splashes, and bites. A trained healthcare professional will respond to all hotline calls 24/7.
We will assess the exposure, order lab tests as needed, prescribe medicine free of charge as indicated, and schedule follow up monitoring when recommended.
What to do if you are injured at work
Call the nearest Employee Occupational Health office to schedule an appointment (see locations and phone numbers to the left). Please make sure that you and your supervisor complete an injury report and bring it with you when you receive treatment.
Report all injuries or near-misses as soon as possible, and within 24 hours.
Tuberculosis Screening
A tuberculosis screening must be performed by an RN, MD, PA, or NP other than yourself. Results must be read 48-72 hours after placement of the tuberculin test. If there is any redness, swelling, or induration present the employee MUST BE SEEN IN EOHW as soon as possible.
Please complete the tuberculosis questionnaire if you cannot take the TB skin test and this has been documented by EOHW.
DUHS FMLA Management
EOHW determines if an absence is an FMLA qualifying event and provides an EOHW Determination Form to both the manager and the employee. This process is mandatory for all DUHS managers.
Travel Clinic
Duke has a travel clinic within Employee Occupational Health and Wellness (EOHW) which has experienced international travel practitioners on staff and charges "at-cost" rates. Employees and adult dependents/spouses can visit the clinic for a travel-related risk assessment and vaccinations. You should complete the Travel Questionnaire prior to your visit and bring documentation of your vaccine history. If you are traveling outside of the country for official Duke business, you should complete the Travel Registry. Here are some frequently asked questions.
Travel Medicine
EOHW provides travel-related health services to employees who must travel abroad on Duke related business and will refer employees to other resources when necessary. Employees should contact EOHW well in advance of anticipated travel, as vaccinations may sometimes entail a series of inoculations.
Reproductive Health Consults
EOHW conducts reproductive health consults for any Duke employee who is pregnant or trying to conceive and is concerned about potential work-place exposures.
Personal Assistance Service (PAS)
Personal Assistance Service (PAS) is the faculty/employee assistance program of Duke University. The staff of licensed professionals offer assessment, short-term counseling, and referrals to help resolve a range of personal, work, and family problems. PAS services are available free of charge to Duke faculty and staff, and their immediate family members.
