    Centra State cannot be pointed out as the major point of infection. Every hospital, every one, has hosts of sick people, bacteria, viruses, air and blood borne pathogens, visitors who may unknowingly visiting when they are ill, etc. Unless the infection can be absolutely connected to a specific incident, Centra State is an excellent hospital. I was just a patient there and I have never been so impressed with such excellent and professional care and on time scheduling. I lost my mother to a nosocomial infection directly linked to her surgery in a New Brunswick hospital. It was the most heartbreaking and devastating experience of my life, watching my mother dying from this infection for 3 months, high temperatures up to 105, packed in ice, blood transfusions, her pain and she was paralyzed. That was an infection that was able to be investigated and accountable for. I miss my mother and it breaks my heart every day thinking all that could have been prevented. Work still needs to be done, but if Universal precautions are taken by everyone, and I’ve seen doctors not use them or wash their hands between patients, the threat of infection can be further reduced. Handwashing, people, and as a nurse, nurses need retraining when changing bandages. Taking off the old bandage, cleaning the wound, then reapplying the old bandage that’s been lying on the bed is a definite source of alot of infections. Nursing supervisors need to step up and hold inservices and make sure this practice stops. Miss you, Mom
