This sign is on the back of a door in the emergency department St. Clare’s in Sin Jawns.
It is upwards of 30 years old since HCCSJ was the name given the first consolidation of hospitals in 1995. We have seen two if not three since. Costs are up. Way up. Care is the same since the folks passing through this door to care for the sick are second to none.
The advice is simple but true: handwashing is the most important way to prevent the spread of infections.
Wash your hands.
Ed, we have many signs up saying " wash your hands" but, the real cleansing sign to ourselves is, spiritually," wash your mouth." This would highly help with all types of "infections" both seen and unseen. God bless and keep encouraging the Newfoudland spirit to higher heights as, we are better than this and very much capable of achieving so much more for our province and people if, we'd only believe that all things are possible.
