Every time my family has someone in the Hospital, we keep a family member there 24 hours/day. Surprising how many people come and go through the course of 24 hours. I always make sure hands are always washed.
I’d just come out of surgery and the iv needed to be redone. The nurse, thinking I was zonked out and no one was around, dropped everything on the floor including the uncovered needle. She just stuck the needle back in. I was aware enough to notice and panicked but unable raise an alarm. Too many times with shoddy care.
