Within the healthcare sector, providing expert care for your patients is at the forefront of your responsibilities. But is this level of care translated throughout your washroom facilities? With the NHS seeing more than 835,000 people visiting their GP practice a day and 94,000 emergency admissions, the spread of illness should be minimised through excellent standards of hygiene. This has several benefits for your medical facility including:
Now is the time to partner with a reliable washroom hygiene services company. With more than 45 years earning the trust of the world’s most recognisable clients, Citron Hygiene is here to help you go above and beyond for your patients, one washroom at a time.
With vast numbers of potentially infectious people stepping through the door day to day, it’s imperative that the highest standards of hand hygiene are in place. Doing so will not only protect patients from rehospitalisation but will also protect your staff and help to minimise sick days. Citron Hygiene’s automatic hand soap dispensers and hand sanitisers help to eliminate contamination in the healthcare sector through user-friendly no touch systems to provide a safer, healthier environment.
Washing your hands cultivates good hygiene practices, but are you aware of the implications of not drying them? Damp hands are 1000x more likely to spread bacteria than dry ones, making it an essential step in the hand hygiene routine of your staff, patients and visitors. Citron Hygiene offers a wide range of environmentally friendly, touch-free hand-drying solutions alongside a flexible service schedule.
Within healthcare settings, malodours can’t be avoided. But for improved wellbeing of patients and staff retention rate, managing these odours, is vital. Getting rid of bad smells is one thing, but actually treating the air to remove viruses and bacteria is another.
Citron Hygiene supplies and services the latest fragrance delivery technology to ensure malodours are eliminated and a subtle, pleasing fragrance is delivered for all washroom users. Use our fragrance solutions in combination with our air purification systems that effectively remove indoor pollutants.
Sickness isn’t the only thing that is tackled in the healthcare sector, with an ageing infrastructure an increasing concern for many businesses. Whilst this issue can’t be eradicated overnight, you can encourage all your washroom users to play their part by installing adequate disposal units for period products and incontinence waste to avoid serious plumbing problems.
Our sanitary bins remove exposure to infection and cross contamination, whilst encouraging staff and customers to correctly dispose of their products. We also offer hands-free units, ideal for healthcare environments where germs are at their most prevalent
Staffing is one of the healthcare sectors primary concerns, with the annual turnover of NHS nursing staff at 12%. To retain your skilled workforce, creating a staff wellness programme that sets you apart as an employer can make a difference. Provide free-vend period product dispensers in your facility’s washrooms and join the growing movement to support menstrual equity and those living in period poverty by offering sustainable, free-vend pads and tampons to your staff and patients.
Over 7 million people in the UK live with incontinence, and as the population ages, this is only going to increase. In healthcare practices and care homes, this condition is likely to be experienced by many. Support those who experience urinary incontinence by providing adequate waste disposal units. In addition, they will help to prevent blockages in drains and reduce cross-infection risks.
Amongst our washroom hygiene services, we also offer supplementary solutions suitable for the healthcare sector. Our sharps bins will enable your facility to safely dispose of sharps, whilst demonstrating your commitment to the health and safety of your staff and patients, and will be serviced regularly by experts. Our range includes pharmi-sharps bins, orange sharps bins, and cytotoxic or cytostatic waste sharps bins. Citron Hygiene is licensed to collect, remove and store all waste until it is disposed of correctly.
