Psych Unit Bed Bugs

Workers at Broadlawns Medical Center in Des Moines had to limit access to care in its psychiatric unit for 3 days last month, when bed bugs were found in 2 patient rooms during routine cleaning. The hospital hired a pest control company to get rid of the bugs in one room, then they found more in another room. the hospital shut down an entire hallway for spraying and cleaning to stop the spread.
