Workers at Pomona Valley Hospital Medical Center in Los Angeles say their concerns about the Clostridium difficile risk to patients are being ignored, according to an article on the HCP Live website.
One of the Pomona Valley Hospital Medical Center environmental services employees, Leticia Duarte, told the LA Times that she picks up bone, blood and flesh on the walls or ceilings using mops.
Another environmental services employee quoted in the report said that she had not received any training on infection control — she has worked at the hospital for 12 years. However, managers denied those accusations.
“We have documentation of their training,” Darlene Scafiddi, vice president of nursing and patient care services said, adding that the hospital meets or exceeds all federal regulations.
