Show Notes

In our latest podcast, sponsored by Smooth Digital, we once again explore the crucially important area of Infection Control and Prevention.

These are difficult times for care homes and this is a must listen for care providers and managers.

Our expert panel discusses:

* The importance of robust infection control and prevention in the laundry room
* How to get laundry design right to reduce the risks
* Cleaning versus disinfecting. How different surfaces require different approaches
* Which products to use where  - and when
* How to comply with clinical waste regulations and what is a care home's duty of care
* How technology can be used to combat the spread of infection in places where social distancing and PPE use are challenging
* How getting infection control and prevention right can reduce absenteeism

Discussing the above topics are  Nicola Whittaker, national account manager at Miele Professional; Graham Flynn, director at Anenta; Steve Whittall, group director of operations at Airdri; and Dr Barend ter Haar, director at BES Healthcare.

The podcast is hosted by our publishing editor Steve Hemsley.
