    I am not bothered about them changing gloves between family members, as far as I am concerned we are of the same germs! But between patients? If he used his bare hands and washed them (if he doesn't change his gloves) between patients I would prefer that. The thought of someone elses saliva and gubbins sitting on the gloves and then going in my mouth - eurghhh!
