Hand Hygiene is the most common measure for preventing the spread of infections and reducing healthcare-associated infections. Secure Healthcare Solutions provides hand sanitizers to all our staff, and we place all equipment needed to prevent disease in the homes for safe practice.

Developing policies for handling medical and infectious waste can lead to consequences. The importance of waste management makes the facility or the client’s homeless infectious due to its tendency to leave germs on surfaces.

Disinfecting is also a key factor in which It reduces the risk of infection spreading, the process of wiping down surfaces, and removing germs, dirt, and organic matter from surfaces. Using chemicals to kill germs on surfaces is as important as anything when providing a service of care to a service user in the comfort of their own home especially if they have complex needs infection spreading can cause harm to the individuals’ health.

Secure Healthcare stresses to the care staff that when you are in home care settings or if the service user has 24-hour care at home under Secure Healthcare that infection control and prevention are demonstrated due to the duty of care that needs to be provided. Alcohol wipes and detergent wipes are good ways to practice disinfection of surfaces.
