If the exposure source is being arrested, the supervisor must notify which person of the exposure and the need for testing?

• A. The Booking Nurse
• B. The Jail Administrator
• C. The Patrol Supervisor
• D. The Treating Physician

Answer: (A)

The Booking Nurse is the one to notify. In intake situations, the Booking Nurse handles medical screening and coordinates exposure testing for anyone being booked. By alerting the Booking Nurse, the supervisor ensures the right tests are ordered, documentation is completed, and medical staff are involved as needed. The Jail Administrator focuses on facility operations, the Patrol Supervisor isn’t the medical intake point, and the Treating Physician would provide care but isn’t the initial contact for arranging testing during intake.
