Clean and Pristine

An often overlooked issue within the healthcare field is cleanliness. How important is hospital cleanliness to you?

Have you ever been to a hospital, or clinic, or any health care setting that seemed less than pristine? I have and it isn't pleasant. When you enter a health care organization, you expect a certain amount of cleanliness, nay, sterility to your surroundings. I don't want to feel like I can catch something while sick and in need of health care.

Generally speaking, those seeking health care in a hospital, clinic or otherwise aren't exactly shining bundles of joy and are probably in pain or quite ill. They don't want any additional stress. To me, there's no excuse for a hospital to be anything but pristine.

Thoughts?
