It is also happening here, both in a medical center on LI that reused insulin pens on over 800 patients.

As a retired RN and a diabetic, this gives me chills. The patients involved will have to be tested, but still…

And disposable instruments, syringes, etc. are also reused on the units, in OR’s and in MD’s offices. And not just in NY, sadly.

Very. And there is a massive nursing shortage.

/I wonder why.

I think patients are going to have to watch for themselves and assume that all medical equipment is reused and refuse it and demand new. This will of course raise costs, but what’s your life worth?

Wow, Nana, that’s horrible.
