18/03/2015 at 3:50 pm #71931Great idea have been trying to introduce this for years. Too expensive
for the organisation. Perhaps we should ask patient to bring a packet of
wet ones or similar to hospital.Jill Low

Too difficult for elderly patient or patients with restricted hand movements to open.
Providing patients with a packet of hand wet wipes is a better option as the packets are easier to open using an easy peel seal.
These wet wipes are already catalogued and available through HealthShare for NSW public hospitals.

Hi Phillipa,
We have discussed this at Bendigo Health and it was not deemed possible logistically or financially. As an alternative, I have just completed a trial in our Orthopaedic ward, whereby all patients were given a 60 ml bottle of alcohol based hand rub for the duration of their stay. Patients were surveyed and it was very well received.
Cheers,
Amanda Ayres.

18/03/2015 at 5:28 pm #71939In 2009 we introduced disposable patient wipes in packet of 25 to every patient at their bedside to promote hand hygiene compliance especially when they are bed bound.
They are a very cost effective product less than $1.00 per packet and covers all opportunities for washing hands.
Our annual surveys also show compliance and patient satisfaction has improved.
Anything that helps to promote infection prevention awareness and the importance of personal hygiene is the best marketing and protection we can provide to our consumers.Kind Regards
