I asked the Valet guys why the keys are arranged on the floor in a hospital. They stated the floors are cleaned regularly. I did not feel that was a good answer so I snapped a few pictures and sent them to the head of the Hospital. Staph, MRSA and a huge list live on a hospital floor. Most of the hospital workers don't even wear their work shoes into their homes.
The policy just got changed.
I work in hospitals daily. That's an asinine thing to do. They just simply do not understand the impact of their actions. Good on you for addressing this!
If they sat through one Blood-borne pathogen training session, maybe they would see the light.
I'm not saying they need to be a germophobe, but as the saying goes..an ounce of prevention.
Btw, it's not just what's on the floors getting on the keys, it's ALSO to prevent what's already ON the keys getting on the floor, and into the hospital.

Besides, if I saw that happen at a restaurant, I'd do the same you did.
