Folks can vote with their feet. If you’re having an elective procedure, ask about infection control and stats during pre-admission. After admission, feel free to make sure the healthcare folks have washed/cleansed before touching you. And, if possible, have someone with you at the hospital during your stay to be an extra pair of eyes.

In our area, doctors have opened their own outpatient surgery centers, so they don't have to send their patients to the hospital, where it's more dangerous.
