Brian is a new nurse and has been working on the medical unit for the last 2 months. Last month, a client died because of nosocomial infection. The hospital administration and educators have been speaking into staff about reducing nosocomial infection rates and the importance of

hand hygiene in that endeavor. Brian notices that Dr. Wells enters his

client’s room without using hand sanitizer or washing her hands, assesses

the client, and then goes to the next client. Brian is aware that this is poor

hygiene and against hospital policy. Brian is concerned for his client’s

safety and those of other clients and wonders how best to address the

problem. Brian is worried that because he is new that he may not be the

best person to address the issue. He feels certain that since this is a big

problem, others must be watching and they will speak to the doctor, so he

chooses to say nothing.
