Sanitising service offers protection

TECare is a newly-launched specialist sanitising service for hospital wards, nursing homes, GP surgeries and home care. The service, from Talley Environmental Care, is designed to protect patients from the risk of Healthcare Acquired Infection (HAI) while limiting the financial impact of the Government’s new cleaning frequency guidelines.

Under the TECare system, trained technicians will treat entire areas, killing or inactivating a broad spectrum of bacteria, viruses, moulds and bacterial spores including Clostridium difficile and MRSA, preventing new colonisation of treated surfaces for up to four weeks. TECare technicians provide traceable environmental risk assessment reports to healthcare facilities, using sample data from medically calibrated ATP meters, similar to those used by the environmental health service in the UK, to provide evidence of the effectiveness of the service, and provide management teams and/or infection control teams with valuable environmental monitoring information allowing comprehensive trend analysis.
