Nurses
who smoke should wait before resuming work
• I AM not a medically-qualified person hearing about
the large number of the superbug MRSA cases at The Royal Free
Hospital, I wonder whether nurses who are smokers allow some
time – say 30 minutes – to elapse, before they resume
their duties?
I mention 30 minutes, because domiciliary nurses are apparently
asking their patients to sign undertakings that they will not
smoke for half an hour before a patient visit – so that
the nurses will not be subjected to the deadly cocktail of chemicals
from smokers.
