🎙️ Tetras show case 🎙️ Every week for the next month we want to show case a feature of our revolutionary Tetras water portal as we launch its latest update. Today we will take a look at the continuous workbook. This feature was designed in collaboration with Great Ormond Street Hospital. The Infection Control team at GOSH wanted a way to effortlessly see historical water analysis data within one easy to use workbook. The continuous workbook allows our clients to scroll through water analysis results within a specific time line. Tetras clients can analysis their water quality by date, building and area, or they can search for a specific outlet. They can then choose to see only certain water quality tests - such as Legionella or Pseudomonas. In this way they can drill into specific problem areas and gain a better understanding of the historical context to outlet contaminations. If the client has opted to utilise our Reef 'software backed water remedial service', then the client will also be able to view past remedial actions that have been performed at this outlet. In this way they can easily see the historical impact of remedial actions upon their water system. If you'd like to find out more then please contact our sales team at sales@proeconomy.com for an online demo. #Water #WaterTreatment #EstatesandFacilities #NHS #InfectionControl

Upcoming event of interest 📆 You're invited to Vernacare's new webinar, "Are You Ready To SWITCH?" It will explore the key differences between two essential hospital waste management solutions: washers and macerators. Date: Friday, October 18, 2024 Time: 11:00 AM - 12:00 PM EST   In this informative session, we’ll delve into:   - Operational Differences: Understand how each system works and their impact on waste management efficiency. - Benefits of Macerators: Discover the advantages of Vernacare's macerators, including enhanced hygiene, reduced manual handling, and compliance with infection control standards. - Cost Considerations: Evaluate the long-term cost benefits and operational savings of each solution.   Register here: https://lnkd.in/g5522JEW

A recent trial concluded:- "Substantial cost savings are achieved by introducing barrier pillows since they are reusable and require standard surface cleaning only, thus making laundry obsolete". "Barrier pillows reduce replacement frequency because they are durable and decrease infection risks since no fluids and contaminants can enter the inner of the pillow due to the barrier filter protection and presence of a completely welded seam". "The decrease in the MDR-ACB incidence is noted after introducing the barrier pillows although there were no major changes in the infection prevention practices in ICU during the post intervention phase". or more information:- Email info@mysleepangel.com Telephone +44 (0) 191 435 6181 www.mysleepangel.com Pamela Robson Steven Lardner Carolyn Brennan BSc Colin Helsdown Sven Jürisoo Paul Bowmaker FCILT Lyane Lind Alison Minter Paul B.
