Recently I completed a Phlebotomy course, fore which I had to attend a clinical rotation. My clinical teacher would tare the finger off her glove so that she could use her exposed finger to find veins, as well as noting that the Phlebotomists did not wash, or clean their hands, tourniquets, or other items that were used from patient to patient.
I have contacted the CDC, and OSHA, but none have gotten back to me about this practice. I was wondering if anyone knew to whom I should speak?
(fwiw I live in California, where all this occured)
Thank you for your help.
