C. dificile tough to kill

C. dificile can't be killed by those water-free alcohol based solutions on the walls (assuming, of course, that they're not empty). You MUST wash your hands with soap and water. Also, everything in the patient's room--bed rails, ECG monitor, counter tops, all get contaminated also--and it can't be easily killed with the wipes. You have to use bleach. Ugh.
