Title: How to make routine whole room decontamination a reality in the NHS

Theme

This master class focuses on the latest breakthrough in environmental surface and airborne de-contamination techniques and shows how they can be applied in real life to consistently lower background contamination levels and make hospital recovery rooms a safer and cleaner place for patients and staff alike.

Aims/Objectives

i) Create NHS staff awareness for a new breakthrough technique for regular hospital room de-contamination.

ii) Demonstrate how the new Meditrox technique will make hospital environments cleaner and safer for patients.

iii) Demonstrate how the new technique can be simply deployed in a real world hospital with minimal environmental disruption.

iv) Show how, if used regularly, the technique will make hospitals safer by reducing the probability of patient infection, therefore saving valuable hospital resources, money, time, and indirectly patient lives.


Delegate Benefits

For chief microbiologists, the awareness and understanding of a new technique that is very effective at combating hospital super bugs such as MRSA, Cdiff, and Norovirus.

For lead nursing staff, the understanding of how this new technique can be easily deployed in a typical hospital environment.

For Financial directors and facilities managers, the understanding of how this technique when deployed long term, could save valuable resources and money.




For PCT CEOs, how the implementation of this process demonstrates thought leadership and commitment to making hospitals more efficient and safer places for patients and staff alike.


Summary
