One in four healthcare facilities around the world lacks basic water services, according to an article on the World Health Organization (WHO) website.
A new report by the WHO and UNICEF Joint Monitoring Programme for Water Supply, Sanitation and Hygiene (JMP) also found that one in five healthcare facilities has no sanitation service.
The report said that many facilities lack basic facilities for hand hygiene and safe segregation and disposal of healthcare waste.
These services are crucial to preventing infections, reducing the spread of antimicrobial resistance and providing quality care, particularly for safe childbirth, the article said.
