[b]I’m confused about why you think working for a different health group means no patient contact?[/b]

And as an aside, most nurses (or rather many nurses) don’t go into the profession wanting to do admin. They actually WANT to do client care. If they are approaching their career as they should, they’re not really at that much increased risk for infection. [/quote]

I’m a Case Manager. All my work  is done on the phone.  I know that’s not always the case. I have never once been sick from work and I have been a nurse for 23 years ( last 9 have been Case Management).
When I worked OR, we didn’t operate on people with cold, flu etc. Only if it was like and death and[b] we wear masks[/b].[/quote]

You should be wearing masks during surgery, not for your protection, but for the client’s protection.

And not operating on someone with a cold or flu has nothing to Do with infection control TO YOU, and everything to do with potential for respiratory complications, usually up to the discretion of the anesthesiologist.

I’m guessing there are many reasons you’re not in client care any more.

I said we wears masks, always. I'm not in patient care because I was promoted to non patient care!
I KNOW why we didn't operate on ill people!!! I'm was explaining that not every area of nursing deals with sick people.
