Hard-up hospital orders staff: Don't wash sheets - turn them over
by DANIEL MARTIN

Cleaners at an NHS hospital with a poor record on superbugs have been told to turn over dirty sheets instead of using fresh ones between patients to save money.

Housekeeping staff at Good Hope Hospital in Sutton Coldfield, have been asked to re-use sheets and pillowcases wherever possible to cut a £500,000 laundry bill.

Rest of pathetic story here:

It's in the Daily Mail, therefore it's a lie.

Must be nice to marginalize everything written by a newspaper, prove it with a credibile source that says it's a complete lie.
Here's an experiment for you. Ask any Brit on the board about the Daily Mail. Apart from Hitlerboy, I defy you to find one that would take it as a credible source for anything.

The hate part was in trying to argue this was some monumental plot to marginalise Christians and the muslims take over the world. It's bullshit and you know it.

I mean, no conservative would ever do that to the NYT.

Hospital denies using dirty sheets

An NHS hospital has denied claims that its staff had been told to turn over dirty sheets instead of using fresh ones between patients.

A newspaper report said that housekeeping staff at Good Hope Hospital in Sutton Coldfield, West Midlands, had been asked to re-use bed sheets and pillowcases wherever possible to cut a £500,000 laundry bill.

The Daily Mail reported that posters in the hospital's linen cupboards and on doors into the A&E department reminded workers that each item costs 0.275 pence to clean.

But the hospital stressed it had never asked its staff to re-use sheets between patients.

Barbara Beal, Good Hope Hospital's director, said: "It has never been the practice at Good Hope for any patient, either on the ward or in A&E, to use the same sheets as another.

"Sheets are changed according to best practise guidelines. These are approved by control of infection nurses and endorsed by a consultant microbiologist and the director of infection prevention and control.

"The guidelines insist on daily sheet changes for all infected patients and whenever a sheet is soiled."

A hospital spokeswoman said that posters about saving linen costs were put up three years ago, when the hospital was managed by a private firm, but added that they should have all been taken down.

She said staff may sometimes 'top n' tail' the sheets of one patient if they do not have any infection, but said they had never been told to do so in between patients.
Best look to your own dirty laundry.

Don't let the facts stand in the way of busybody's whackjob theories [this is Busybody Whackjob Theory #1,750].

On a similar note Wednesdays busybody takes the purple pills. The facility staff triple-check to make sure busybody swallows 'em.
