Answers:
I'd imagine that they were maybe not as clean!.!.!.however today, a lot of our hospitals do leave a lot to be desired !! C diff, MRSA, VRSA, norovirus!.!.!. to name but a few are all prevolent!.!.!. Only If you are extremely lucky and fastidious with hand hygiene you may be able to avoid those nasty little blighters!! Did they exist then or is it only media coverage that has brought them to the forefront!?
Of course we mustn't forget our teams of industrial cleaners that once in a while swamp the wards and do allsorts of deep cleaning!.!.!.too few and far between however!!!.!.!.And not forgetting the alcohol hand dispensers!.!.!.!.loads of money spent where i work to promote hand hygiene yet often they are empty, and encouraging staff/patients/visitors etc to use them can be a thankless chore!!

Ok rant over!.!.!.!.!.

iam an ex nurse, but have obviously visited since leaving nursing 7 years ago, i think she would be amazed at what we have accomplished since she was around but she would be gutted with the standard of some nursing care that i have witnessed, or rather lack of it, we should be bringing back the caring, professional nurse, who want to treat and actually nurse patients back to health, yes we need nurses who are top notch on technology but also we need real nurses back,
cleanlinesss is better than it was, but i belive it was probably better still in florences dayWww@Answer-Health@Com

i think she would be proud of all the modern technology we have today and would be awestruck!. i don't think she would have any issues with the sanitation procedures!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
