Reverie Harp – patient contact?

[Michael Wishart]

Hi all

Our pastoral care team want to use a Reverie Harp as part of working with patients https://www.robertsmusic.net/harps/

It would potentially be taken into patient rooms, and patients would hold it or it would be placed on their bed for them to play.

Any suggestions about how we would manage this form an infection prevention and control perspective? Does anyone use anything like this in their facilities already? Any suggestions on how it could be cleaned between patients?

Thanks for any advice.

Cheers
Michael

Hi Michael,

Found the following cleaning instructions online (see below and attached):

. Cleaning The Reverie Harp If you are using your Reverie Harp in a
hospital setting and need to keep it disinfected you can wipe down the
instrument and strings with the alcohol based disinfectant wipes commonly
found in hospitals.

I would also include patient/client/resident HH before and after each use
