We are thrilled to announce that Woodthorpe Hospital have achieved the Silver accreditation for ANTT® Patient Protection Accreditation Programme for Healthcare Providers.
ANTT is supported by evidence and highlights the key components involved in maintaining asepsis and aims to standardise practice.
The 4 main principles of ANTT:
- Always wash hands effectively;
- Never contaminate key parts;
- Touch non-key parts with confidence;
- Take appropriate infective precautions.
A big thank you to you all and especially to the individuals who have supported the huge number of audits and training that was required to achieve. This is a testament to everyone’s hard work in preventing infections and demonstrating best practice at our hospital!
Next stop: GOLD!
