Hello all
I wondered if anyone has specific research into the installation of wall
mounted ABHR units in wings for residents with dementia. Much of the
research or reported cases of people drinking ABHR relate to individual
bottles of solution and not from wall mounted units. W are currently looking
the installation across all of our units and wondered if anyone has
undertaken a risk assessment of this or had experience/opinions of this. We
naturally want to balance the safety risk for the confused resident with the
risk of not have suitable hand hygiene methods available from an IPC
perspective.
Kind regards,
Helen Finlay
