Would giving antibiotic prescription cream make an injury an OSHA recordable?
If giving the cream is a preventive process, it may not make the injury recordable. If the cream is given to deal with an infection that was the result of the injury, yes, that would make the injury recordable since the cream is a prescription medication and giving it is therefore beyond first aid. All the above presumes that the circumstances of the injury or need for antibiotic treatment meet the other criteria for recordability.
