HI Carien,
In our private dialysis clinics we have
an IPC Champion (RN) who is given equivalent to one day non-clinical time
per month, to complete all the IPC audits and education including hand
hygiene auditing.
Before that we were not getting the
audits done as there was no time spare during a shift and the times hand
hygiene audits should be done was the busy times when all staff were doing
clinical work.
With best regards

Subject:
Hand Hygiene
Program
Good afternoon,
Im seeking advice from my colleagues
in the Private Health sector as to how you run an effective hand hygiene
program. Im specifically referring to the challenges related to
auditing where there are no hours allocated for auditing and in a climate
of reduced clinical hours therefore making it even harder to fit auditing
in with a very high workload for staff in clinical areas.
Kind regards,
Carien
