Conversing with Life

KIV Home soon

The hospital is a dirty place.

Not that it is physically dirty with rubbish and litter, although sometimes the MO room is just that; but that it is full of germs (bacteria, viruses and fungi).

And these are not your typical common flora, these are 'commando-trained' bugs that will make you very very ill.

MRSA
VRE
VISA (not your American Express)

There are so resistant that a new term was coined for them - "Nosocomial".

And when your doctor says you can go home, please go home. Because the last thing we want to do is to treat a nosocomial infection.

And trust us, sometimes treatment CAN continue at home.
