Home laundering may not reliably kill all pathogens found on scrubs and other healthcare attire, which places employees, families and communities at greater risk of infection and other hazards. This webinar will provide frontline workers, facility administrators and infection preventionists information on why professional laundry facilities are best equipped to provide hygienically clean scrubs, address common misperceptions about home laundering and share best practices to ensure patients and workers are safe.
A newly released study—conducted by De Montfort University Leicester in collaboration with TRSA and the Textile Services Association—reinforces the urgency of this topic, finding that many home washing machines fail to eliminate harmful bacteria, even at high temperatures. Don’t miss this timely opportunity to learn how your facility can strengthen infection prevention and better protect patients and staff.
