I was just going to say that - they don't wash their hands as such, they use an alcohol rub which sterilises their hands better than washing

I actually had a visit today from a Plebotomist from our hospital Path Lab. She uses an alcohol hand wash before and after each test, as they do in the hospital. That may be why your daughter did not see the nurse wash her hands. Deanna X

jackie they done a study years ago and put peanuts chrisps an tested the ice machine behind a bar...they found faeces in all where the staff and customers didn't wash their hands...also in the peanuts...so next time you decide to grab a nut from the bar think againxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx(((((:

Always. I'm amazed at how many women walk straight out of a cubicle in public loos and leave without washing their hands. Gross! Mags x

off topic a bit, daughter pointed something out to me today that I hadnt noticed before, she had to have blood test done. when the nurses take blood tests they dont seem to wash their hands before each patient, is this normal practise. this is at the local path lab. jean
