I am amazed to find that they feel 15 minutes is required for this. Please can anyone forward me any research regarding hand washing and what is actually serficient. I know that some of our sites are high risk but in my opinion so was theatre when I was working in it and 15 minutes was not requried then. Or perhaps that is why the waiting lists are so long now! Any help appreciated thank you********************************Please remove this footer before replying.OCC-HEALTH ARCHIVES:http://www.jiscmail.ac.uk/lists/occ-health.htmlCONFERENCES AND STUDY DAYS:http://www.jiscmail.ac.uk/cgi-bin/filearea.cgi?LMGT1=OCC-HEALTH***** ***************************Please remove this footer before replying.OCC-HEALTH ARCHIVES:http://www.jiscmail.ac.uk/lists/occ-health.htmlCONFERENCES AND STUDY DAYS:http://www.jiscmail.ac.uk/cgi-bin/filearea.cgi?LMGT1=OCC-HEALTH ******************************** Please remove this footer before replying.
