Enjoying writing this blog summarising the findings of a literature review about "water-lite" (aka water-free or water-safe) care https://t.co/AVXeNQFfeK (I explain in the post why I favour "water-lite")!

Check out this blog that @jonotter wrote about going "water-lite" https://t.co/FDlTVT0kxr But what should we call the strategy to reduce patient exposure to tap water??
