That blanket is thrown away. I bought one last month and they told me
I could take it home if I wanted.
I agree the prices are inflated. Brill points out several reasons why.
No, it's not. Yes, you could take it home, but hospital soft goods are
washed and re-used.
The blanket they charge you for comes in a factory sealed bag and once
the bag is opened, they throw it away. These are typically OR supplies
and with the number of infections they get sued for they are not
taking chances. That was straight from the OR nurse who sold me the
blanket.
Nope. Not true at all. I have direct knowledge in this. But, let's just
say that your untrue statement was true. Do you think it's good prudent
financial advice to pay 100 times or more for something that you could
get elsewhere for 100 times less? If so, I have a LOT of things I'd like
to sell you.
