    Hi,

    Just wondering if anyone has any innovative ideas how to engage doctors
    in taking aseptic technique on board?

    Perhaps even getting them to do some education??

    Christine,

    This is a great place to start.

    http://antt.org/ANTT_Site/Home.html

    Alternatively, do what I do and show clinicians the nasty effects of
    infection in a slideshow – shock factors always seem to work the best
    for me – I have a great PIVC slideshow showing a horror story of bad
    PIVCs.

    Works every time.

    Hi
    We have made August for “Intravenous Access Assessment”. The nurses & midwives will be doing a competency on aseptic non touch technique and giving IV medication. The medical staff and those nurses & midwives who cannulate will be doing a competency on aseptic non touch technique & cannulation.
    We started education a year ago on asepsis from the National Standard. For this part of the program I very much wanted to work with doctors leading doctors & have targeted and educated the leaders only
    Steps now:

    * have Identified medial, nursing & midwifery leadership in each division (I have also been able to use some medical staff who have experienced this process in the UK)

    * these leaders are currently doing the pre-reading of policies & watching the videos on ANTT & peripheral cannulation etc ( LDH has purchased the ANTT program from the UK as a resource)

    * medical competency assessed by an expert (committed anaesthetist)

    * In August we will have simulation stations where staff can practice against the competencies (after the pre learning from videos)

    * The leader of the medical staff will then assess other doctors in their division as will the nurses and midwives

    Current culture in the place is very positive, I have spent a lot of time explaining why these changes need to be made.

    Management has given support to this project along with the educators, Infection control link nurses & midwives & ICP have worked together on this project

    Not sure if this helps but it appears to be working here

    Kind regards
