Hand Hygiene

In the interests of our patients, we are committed to maintaining a clean, safe environment. Hand hygiene is a very important factor in controlling infection and therefore the Trust has installed hand gel dispensers at the entrance of each clinical area for all to use. We request that all visitors that enter a clinical area use this gel to clean their hands before entering.
