Hi Helen,
I would be very interest in taking part in audits of Bare Below the Elbows within our hospital.
This audit has not been conducted within the facility that I work at. I continuously see Nursing staff wear smart watches, rings and bangles. This would be great exercise for us.
I work in a regional hospital with 142 beds.Please contact me if you think our hospital would be appropriate.
Kind regards,
Emily Stewart Infection Control Coordinator RN

Hi
I commenced Bare Below Elbows audits in our hospital around 2 years ago.
Initially it was very hard to get staff to appreciate or understand the importance of it.
The biggest challenge is the idea that we all need our smart watches ( how did we ever survive before).
I did monthly audits for at least six months and now have been able to taper off.
It has been continual messaging and can now say that we have a continual compliance rate in the 90s.
This is driven by staff on the wards, who call each other out on practices that we no longer accept.
It was difficult to start but I am very proud of what we now achieve.
All I have to do now is to get the VMOs to join the party 🙂Kathryn Pateman
