The winners of the 2013 schülke Hand Hygiene awards will receive their trophies at IPS on the SCHÜLKE exhibition stand.
The awards aim to recognise and reward hand hygiene initiatives which ‘go the extra mile’. Schülke offers a wide range of infection prevention products including desderman Pure hand hygiene gel – a rapid acting alcohol based hand rub which is effective against bacteria, fungi and viruses. Colour and perfume free, desderman pure is gentle on the skin and is suitable for frequent use. A new web-based ‘Understanding MRSA’ tutorial has just been introduced by Schülke for healthcare professionals. The tutorial is split into six modules which include:
• Healthcare-associated infections (HCAIs).
• What is MRSA?
• Infections caused by MRSA.
• Screening and decolonisation.
• MRSA transmission and prevention.
• Practical demonstration about using octenisan antimicrobial wash.
