the nicu i worked at ny had a policy to glove for any patient and equipment contact but did not enforce the policy for jewelry here in fl you can where a simple wedding band but must scrub in at the start of the shift and practice good hand hygiene before and after patient contact. i agree that the bundles for ivs is a good idea and is proven to work, also i agree that babies need skin contact. i am undecided on the wedding ring, i agree bacteria is hard to remove around rings but i dont like not wearing my wedding ring i feel naked...lol i am planning on buying a simple wedding band to wear at work.
