Contact our teamWhy is infection prevention and control important?
Infection control guidelines help to prevent the spread of infections in hospitals, surgical sites, nursing homes and healthcare settings. These outbreaks can pose a serious threat to the health and safety of your patients and staff.
- Approximately 834,000 patients will acquire a preventable infection in an NHS Hospital in England
- Resulting in around 28,500 deaths annually
- While 21% of all bed days per year are occupied by HCAI patients.*
Ensuring strict procedures for equipment cleaning, carrying out specialist disinfection with the right chemicals and deploying technology in the right places is key to control outbreaks.
