Abstract
A syringe safety sleeve apparatus having a hollow inner barrel which couples to a conventional syringe device, and a hollow outer sleeve slidably disposed on the inner barrel. The outer sleeve reversibly slides on the inner barrel between a retracted position and an extended, needle covering position to protect users of the invention from the syringe needle. A docking base is included which provides for protecting persons from needle puncture wounds during attachment and removal of needles from the syringe device, during removal and replacement of needle covers on needles, and during disposal of used needles.
