As a self proclaimed germaphobe this issue really gets next to me. Betsy is a precious lady that can no longer walk. She spends her days in a wheel chair and her nights in her bed. She is a very sociable lady and tells some hilarious stories. I noticed while we were talking the other day that her hands were black from pushing her wheel chair around.
I take notice of most of the residents and low and behold they only get their hands washed once a day. These people shake hands, scratch heads, pick noses, and go to the bathroom throughout the day and when meal time comes their trays are plopped right down in front of them to eat with their dirty hands.
I think I have found an additional mission for me...I am going to get some baby wipes and go around and wash their hands.
