Why aren't they allowing flowers in cardiac wards ?!


Question:

Why aren't they allowing flowers in cardiac wards ?

I went to visit my mum yesterday in hospital and took her a bunch of her favourite red roses, but when i arrived i was told she could not keep them as no flowers were allowed on these wards, i was so upset !!.
Why do they have this rule ??.


Answers:

oh don't feel bad richard, bet your mum will appreciate some for when she comes out of hospital.

if we're talking about a NHS hospital,
they are doing all they can to keep out hospital acquired infections. they've blamed Doctors ties, visitors & now i guess it's the flowers, turn.
when really all it comes down is it was a mistake getting rid of Matrons that ran the Wards, like it should be, spick & span.
nurses now days don't want to clean-up.
