CLEAN HOSPITALS SUMMIT
for the PATIENTS ASSOCIATION

www.cleanerhospitals.co.uk
The problem of hospital acquired infections (HAIs); including MRSA, is becoming an ever more serious one for people working within the hospital environment – doctors, nurses, radiographers, cleaners, caterers and patients alike.

Many organisations have hosted conferences to address the issues but have concentrated on their own areas of speciality.

 
Representing all patients in the UK - the Patients Association launched the Clean Hospital Summit, a unique event looking at all aspects of the problems from ward cleaning to hand washing, medical interventions to decontamination. Speakers including Lord Warner, Under Secretary of State for Health; Sir Nigel Crisp, NHS Chief Executive; Chief Nursing Officer, Christine Beasley and Anna Walker, Chief Executive of the Healthcare Commission willingly agreed to take part.

‘We must find a way of getting real hygiene back into its place amongst the armoury of methods we have to protect, improve and preserve patients’ health.’

Claire Rayner,
President of The Patients Association

 
This is also a unique event as letters of support were received from Tony Blair, Michael Howard, Charles Kennedy and many of the UK’s top personalities.
