@KettGeneral @KGH_IPCT took a moment to celebrate the Trust being 4 years MRSAb free today. Shows what compliance with good old fashion IP standards can do. Thank you KGH

Love your Lines 😍😍 reducing the risk of BSI's!

[Kettering IPC @KGH_IPCT]

Glove use is an integral element of safe health care practice. In order for us to gain an insight into our compliance with the use of non-sterile gloves please could you take part in a small survey.
