VOLUME 14 FNP+ -EIP-ll EANDLING OF INJURED PERSCNNEL 1.0 Purpose This procedure provides guidelines for actions to be taken in the event of serious injury or in the event of any injury where radioactive contamination may exist.

2.0 References 2.1 Joseph M. Farley Nuclear Plant Emergency Plan 2.2 FNP-0-EIP-8, Notification Roster 2.3 Title 10, Code of Federal Regulations, Part 20 2.4 FNP-0-EIP-17, Notification of Unusual Event t

2.5 FNP-0-EIP-26, Offsite Notification 3.0 General 3.1 Plant medical treatment of injured personnel

,shall consist of simple first aid rendered by qualified individuals.

3.2 At least one person on each operating crew of each unit shall be qualified to perform first aid.

3.3 Casualty decontamination should not take prece-dence over first aid in those cases requiring urgent medical treatment.

3.4 Decontamination will normally consist of removing contaminated clothing, washing of superficial abrasions, flushing of the eyes, etc.

3.5 Casualties with serious injuries such as concus-siens, fractures, lacerations, stretcher cases, etc., should be transferred to the hospital immediately.

3.6 Chemistry & Health Physics shall provide supervision as soon as nossible after casualties have been sent to Southeast Alabama Medical Center, to provide assistance in the coordination of the receipt cf cc:ualties.

3.7 Any indi"idual who administers first aid shall subsequently complete applicable sections of CHP Form 105, First Aid Record, (Figure 1) and forward the completed form to the Chemistry and Health Physics Supervisor.

and bloodforming organs);

or b.
