I had a Cardiologist yell at me in front of the patient about having too many Contact precaution signs on the door. He had MRSA in his blood.
The patient laughed when I came in later and he questioned me about it....and I asked him what the harm was in telling people to wash their hands. He wasn't offended so I'm not sure why Dr Irritable was. He had one green Contact Precuation sign, a little sticker beside the door, and a "Wash your hands" sign.
That was more like a Code Jerk, I think.
