AN OVERVIEW OF HOW TO PREVENT THE SPREAD OF INFECTION

Dear nurses,

Hope you had a good holiday.

Let us take a look at what happens in the preoperative
and operative areas, in order to prevent the spread of infection.

The immune system is compromised by illness. Preventing the 
spread of infection in a Healthcare facility is a major concern,
as healing may be delayed. Every precaution is taken to keep
the Healthcare facility clean and germ free.

For example, prior to surgery, the nurses, doctors, technicians 
and more, spend extra time scrubbing up and changing into 
sterile gowns. They don masks and gloves as well.

It is important to remember that a part of the patient's body
will be cut open and healing following surgery, must not be
delayed due to infection.
