Doctors - #1 MRSA carriers

i know many docs/nurses/others who are horrendous.

keep in mind that hand sanitizer in the hospital is'nt very good at killing MRSA. hand washing for 20 seconds is always best.

I am currently in the hospital, but this time I went to the hospital that specializes in CF (its a teaching hospital). So far, everyone has been following protocol about gowning up, masking up, etc. The hospital I go to in my hometown, they are finally "addressing" the problem with MRSA. BUT, the doctors are still the worse when it comes to following infection control.

I just found out today I have 3 strains of Pseudomonas. When I get back home, and have to be around any doctor, I will definitely speak my mind about infection control, and remind them that as a doctor to use their hippocratric oath!!!!!<img src="i/expressions/face-icon-small-mad.gif" border="0">

i had to throw a royal FIT!!! when my daughter was in the hospital for her bronch so the staff would wear gloves and a gown. they actually had to call my daughters doctor to the floor to "deal with the situation". they kept telling me that they use hand sanitizer....but that is just not good enough protection from my stand point. especially when you have nurses and respiratory therapists going from room to room, a little hand sanitizer didnt make me feel like she was getting the best care possible and im not settling for anything less or taking a chance!

When DS was in the NICU, one thing a relative who used to work in a TB ward years ago commented on was how the RTs and other staff would wash/foam their hands; however, they would go from layette to layette and pick up some of the babies and hold them to their chests to feed them, do CPT, etc. They weren't gowned, so you know germs were being transferred from the scrubs to each child.

Also at the time the RTS had the community albuterol bottle which and saline vials they kept in the pocket of their scrubs. During our recent stay I noticed that the rts would bring in mesh bags with individual packets of albuterol and the saline, so they weren't digging in the pockets of their scrubs.
