Infection Prevention And Control

The practice has robust policies in place for infection prevention and control. This includes policies on hand washing, cleaning of the surgery sites and correct disposal of waste in line with current guidelines.

We would ask that you use the hand gel dispensers that are available in the entrance areas of the 3 surgery sites and also make use of the waste bins provided for any rubbish you may wish to dispose of.

Infection Prevention And Control

Ensuring strict infection prevention and control practices across all three of our surgery sites is essential in order to stop the development or further spread of infection. Both patients and staff have important roles to play in protecting themselves and others, but thorough hand washing is particularly effective.

Hands may look clean, but germs are always present; some harmful, some not. These germs are often passed from person to person either directly by hands or indirectly by equipment or general surroundings.

It is important that patients, visitors and staff regularly wash their hands. Whilst in the surgery, patients, carers and visitors are encouraged to use the available hand sanitiser for cleansing their hands, both upon arrival and when leaving the building.

Hand washing is especially important before eating and drinking and after using the toilet. If you have wound dressings, stitches, a catheter or other attachments then try not to touch them any more than is necessary, and always wash your hands afterwards. Bring only essential items with you to the surgery.

Our staff will, as appropriate, and in line with relevant risk assessments, use any necessary personal protective equipment (PPE) i.e. gloves, masks, aprons, when carrying out your treatment. This is to protect both staff and patients. Staff will always wash their hands or cleanse with hand sanitiser before and after contact with you.

The practice has robust policies in place for infection prevention and control. This includes policies on hand washing, cleaning of surgery sites and the safe and correct disposal of waste in line with current guidelines.

It is essential to maintain a high standard of hygiene on the premises and your assistance with this would be appreciated. If you have any questions or concerns regarding infection prevention and control, please contact the surgery and we will be happy to discuss any concerns with you.
