In a new report, Infection Control Rises to Top of C-Suite Agenda, a panel of facilities management infection control experts connect effective facility design, operations and management to the ability to control and dramatically reduce hospital-acquired infections, according to an article on the Market Wired website.
"Physical space and how it's used, maintained and managed is the first line of defense against the spread of infection-causing bacteria at a healthcare facility," said Peter Bulgarelli, managing executive director, JLL Healthcare Solutions.
The report highlights three areas to consider:
• Physical materials and placement of medical supplies and equipment within a care setting.
• Proper maintenance and cleaning of environmental equipment and medical devices.
• Effective oversight of outside contractors and services.
