BiBottomBoy Posted August 31, 2011 Posted August 31, 2011 This is fucking scary: "Since 2006, a nurse who worked at various Dean Clinic locations in the state had been misusing instruments used to inject insulin. The nurse had been trained to demonstrate how to use an insulin pen and a finger stick device that tests blood sugar levels, and always changed needles after demonstrating the devices on patients. The problem is that the insulin pens were meant to be used in demonstrations on oranges or pillows, not on patients. Plus, even though the needles were clean, blood could get into the devices and be passed on to other patients who used them." http://jezebel.com/5836052/clinic-may-have-exposed-thousands-of-patients-to-hiv--hepatitis Quote
Guest hitoallusa Posted August 31, 2011 Posted August 31, 2011 At least they were honest about it and notified their patients. Quote
