Comment on peer's blog

I read Kim's blog and her comment about use of latex gloves. I think every healthcare should require their clinicians to wear gloves. By not using gloves the clinicians are not only risking their lives, also risking patients lives as well. Since the bloodborne infectious diseases are so common, everybody should use precautions.This summer I went to see a doctor, more than four times, and the nurse who drew my blood, she never wore gloves. A few days ago, I went to take a TB test and the nurse did not had gloves on. I think I would perfer clinician to wear gloves, it will make me feel little safer. Kim's comment 'using glove can improve quailty' I think its truth, using gloves oftenly in healthcare will provide better customer satisfation which will lead to better quailty healthcare.
