"Dirty hospital, public health warning!"

About: Kingston Hospital / General surgery

Dirty hospital, public health warning! I was waiting to get an ultrasound steroid injection in my hand. A guy came in with a dog as an emotional support pet. I watched nurses touching the dog with their hands, not washing their hands and then touching patients! The guy asked if I wanted to touch the dog just before my injection for my hand and I said no way! This is a sure way to spread infection in a hosiptal. You are putting patents lives at risk with poor infection controls.
