Hello Everyone,
I have been involved in the planning of a new ambulatory build, Some of the external health care providers who will be sharing the building are insisting on a drinking fountain in the patient waiting.
I have a very strong aversion to water/drinking fountains – people refilling personal water bottles, children putting their mouths over the taps to drink.
Whilst I am sticking to my guns with a big no, just wondering if anyone out there in Infection Connexion land has any evidence to back up my stance? (please)
Thanks
Regards
Chris
