Poor hygiene during covid19 pandemic
I took my baby for his 10 week vaccine at 2pm today, I was the only one with a baby and 2 other ladies were there before me, I was only attended to at 2:45pm. The nurse called all of us into one small room to take vitals, we were standing next to each other, there was no space to distance ourselves, she weighed my baby, she asked me to remove his blanket and put him straight on the scale, did not sanitize it or have any linen saver on it. I think this was highly inappropriate due to the corona virus outbreak, we should have been called in 1 at a time, extra hygiene precautions need to be taken into consideration. I was then called by another nurse who administered the vaccine, she was not using a mask, no gloves and she came from outside the building, did not wash her hands or use sanitizer. She told me I should bring my baby to the clinic at 7am like all other mothers. I told her I did come earlier and it was very crowded so I chose to come later in the day, so it's less exposure for my baby, she said how would I know even she could have the virus. Seems like healthcare professionals are not taking this seriously??? They don't care about protecting themselves, how are they going to protect us??? Minister of Health can you please look into this? Highly unacceptable during this pandemic.
