Maybe we should go with the chest bump and keeps hands out of it all together. With a bit of singing along the way we can turn our facilities into an episode of Scrubs! Anyone want to do a research project on it?

Hi Michael,
I can see consultants fist-bumping if they wear their trousers low! Seriously, the research was well conducted and well-written and actually got space in our NZ newspaper Ive never had press like that with any of my papers!

We saw a call before to ban handshaking in healthcare as a way to reduce transmission of organisms. Now a study suggest fist bumping is the best greeting to replace a hand shake. Can we all see our consultants fist pumping their patients each morning? 🙂
