Guest guest Posted September 23, 2002 Report Share Posted September 23, 2002 That would be a good question.Unfortunately,the infection control nurse had been told not to get involved and will not speak with me. Eileen Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted September 23, 2002 Report Share Posted September 23, 2002 Has the hospital documented the number of post-op infections, specifically fungal? These would also be telling numbers. E.

[mailto:Arroon@...]Sent: Monday, September 23, 2002 11:11 AM Subject: Re: [] Federaql Construction Lemon LawThank you for your comments Larry.Unfortunately I do have to work there for a few more weeks until I find something viable,Odd is it not that there is a national shortage of RN's, especially OR nurses and this place cannot keep them healthy. In the past three years I have seen 5 take early retirement, one die from lung cancer (sudden onset and quick death) and the rest of us sick with either chronic sinusitis & asthma, frequent bouts of pneumonia, and three with Hep. C who now work in non clinical areas of the OR. Unfortunately there are not enough non clinical spots for us all to fill.Quite a few of these people will not believe there is a problem because upper management tells them so. I was told this past summer that my conduct was unbecoming a manager for asking questions and trying to resolve this issue. Hard to believe that they would not fix the problem and keep a healthy staff.EileenFAIR USE NOTICE:This site contains copyrighted material the use of which has not always been specifically authorized by the copyright owner.
