I recently presented to Kalgoorlie emergency with heart pains. I was generally satisfied with the care provided until just before discharge when a person (I don't know if doctor or assistant) removed my cannula and then proceed to help mop up the substantial amount of blood spilt during this process without any gloves. In the process, their hands became stained with my blood.
At the time I was too shocked to comment but later as I reviewed the event in my mind I realized the seriousness.
