I would definitely do the plastic with tape. There is waterproof tape you can get that will keep it out, and facing the shower will help.

I didn't have staples after my back surgery - dissolvable sutures were used.
LOL - do docs even know how to "suture" any more?? Staple guns are so much easier. It's kinda like doing the lost art of math in your head - why go to the extra work when you have a calculator?
