RE: White Coats; An Effective Nosocomial Transmitting Agent?
I've always thought that long-cuffed coats were potentially dangerous to patients; we place our arms on many unclean desks, tables and such. I almost always roll my sleeves when I'm stitching or cleaning wounds because of that, and try to pull up my gloves to cover as much of my skin as possible.
That's a good attitude. I wonder if you were forbidden from wearing a short-sleeved white coat? If not, then maybe you want to consider them as a great alternative.
