A hospital technician missed out one step in a multi-step sterilization process, meaning surgical patients treated at the hospital between April and September this year may be at risk of infection.
Patients admitted to Goshen Hospital in Indianna between April 1 and September 30 of this year may have been exposed to HIV, Hepatitis B and C among other infectious diseases.
"As with any patient safety concern, we rigorously investigated all aspects around the incident," said Dr. Daniel Nafziger, Hospital Chief Medical Officer, in the letter. "I was really really mad," said Deboard, who has children and grandchildren she says would also be affected by any complication that might have resulted from the blunder.
