You my dear have been very well educated and you still follow important rules. Even if you weren’t taught these rules, I applaud you for your discernment, wisdom and care of humans you treat. You are a very rare breed . Never lose that. What you do SAVES lives!!!!
I also wore support hose to help prevent varicose veins and swelling from standing for hours. As you indicated OR and other areas in the hospital are physically demanding. It takes a toll over time. Thanks for being there!
You should change your OR shoes now. Besides being full of germs (hopefully they still wear shoe covers inside OR area), plus shoes should be very supportive.
Bacteria gets trapped under polish, typically around the perimeter, free edge and any chipped areas because they can lift sligjtly and trap bacteria. Even if they look clean they're not. We have a strict policy on nails in my food factory. Polish and fake nails, enhancements, jewels, etc can also fall off into food.
Why is she wearing disgusting shoes in the or even if they are specifically o r shoes I would have thought they could have been a source of infection considering everything they had been exposed to during 10 years of surgeries
@@hermithag Shoe covers don’t cut it. That’s like not washing your hands for 10 years and expecting that wearing gloves will keep the germs away. Or never washing your scrubs and expecting a sterile gown to be sufficient. No, no way.
All shoes are considered dirty always. Even if they were straight from the store. They will never come in contact with anything sterile. It’s probably not good for your feet because they don’t have support…but that’s about it.
@ Of course, same as freshly washed scrubs from home are considered to be “dirty” for purposes of wearing in the OR…hence the reason for having to change into scrubs supplied by the hospital. But 10 yo shoes that have never been cleaned have got to carry way more germs than brand new shoes, even with shoe covers.
You are a Gem, but dead sneakers are a No! In the OR?! Those sneakers have names after 10 years!! Girl... Merry Christmas and Thank You for doing a wonderful job! 📯🎄☃️🥃🦌🦌🛷
They still make those shoes. If you've had them 10 years, the midsole foam is compressed by now and not providing proper support. Also, you shouldn't wear disgusting shoes in a hospital

Thanks for sharing. I've retired, and one thing I really miss is being in the OR, but don't miss the hard work, long hours, and charting ❤

Great info. Thank you for being kind , considerate, respectful, and engaging with family. I had a major surgery, and were very patient with me. ❤

WoW.... Things I've never known!! Or even considered!!! Seriously.. Thanks
thanks for the tour
I hate seeing long nails and nail polish in medical settings.
❤❤❤❤❤❤
Hmmm...disgsting OR shoes....does that seem off or is it just me?
Won’t those ‘disgusting’ sneakers carry germs into the operating room?
That is what I was thinking.
They wear shoe covers

Well done, you've worked hard to be here, thank you.
Very informative, i think its time for some new shoes..
I worked in the OR for 4 months. I hated it! The people down there were mostly not friendly nor helpful.
