Our goal is to contribute to the reduction of healthcare associated infections by ensuring the hospital is clean.  We are continuously looking at improvements within our hygiene standards. Your help is needed to keep our hospital clean and help prevent the spread of infection.

	Place your rubbish in the bins provided, green bins are available for recyclable waste.
	Keep the space around you and your bed tidy and uncluttered so that  cleaning staff can access all the surfaces easily.
	Do not store any belongings on the floor, use locker & wardrobe provided   - some belongings must be sent home if there is not enough  space available to store them.
	Always remove your toiletries and clothes from bathrooms after use.
