feedingtimeathtezooI had washed--we do a surgical scrub after putting on our scrubs. Even after scrubbing there was enough oil residue left to burn holes in my tear ducts.
At that time, MRSA and VRE weren't the scourges they are now--we had pseudomonas auruginosa. It smells very distinctive and puts off a lovely teal/blue/green pus. One of the patients I had that day used to pick at the P. auruginosa scabs at her trache site, then wipe her hands on any unsuspecting nurse she could reach. After the Chili Incident, that was almost a relief!
