It makes you feel like a moaning git, which I've never been in my life. Both my partner, and my infection control audit nurse best pal has said that you cannot possibly expect to get to a certain age and not take different ailments. It's still a nuisance though. I want to be at work.
It'll be piling up at work, but I can't because of infection control. So, I'll go back to a huge workload and feel low again eventually! It's ridiculous.
Good point alice!
Where I work we have 36 residents and about 100+ staff plus all the visitors so we get loads of outbreaks of all sorts, especially at this time of year but I've always been lucky before.
We've not got any Norovirus at the moment but I think we had one resident isolated for a week - dunno why, so could be I've picked up a bug - I was in her room checking her electrical stuff last week!
Just thought of that! stevmk2
