East Sussex Hospitals NHS Trust choose BIOQUELL to aid with their ‘deep cleaning’ programme
East Sussex Hospitals NHS Trust has become the second Trust to deploy BIOQUELL’s Hydrogen Peroxide Vapour (“HPV”) bio-decontamination technology. In order to reduce hospital acquired infections the Trust is undertaking a ‘deep clean’ programme in line with the Government’s initiative to carry out a national ward-by-ward clean. Read More
Matthew Parks, Head of BIOQUELL’s Room Bio-Decontamination Service, said:
"We are delighted to be working with the East Sussex Trust – the second dedicated implant team deployed within the UK. With this specialist decontamination resource, the hospitals are able to focus on eradicating nosocomial pathogens from the environment and hence reduce hospital acquired infections. This preventative approach has been proven to work in hospitals in the US and I am excited to see BIOQUELL’s technology being used in our hospitals.
Equally, we are continuing to support the NHS' requirement for decontamination technologies by offering emergency decontamination call outs and also equipment for the hospitals to purchase and operate themselves.”
This contract is another important win for BIOQUELL who have invested heavily in the research and development of its HPV decontamination systems. In March 2007 the BIOQUELL Z was launched – a system which can be purchased and operated by the hospitals. This option gives users the control and flexibility to decontaminate ICU's, patient side wards, isolation rooms and equipment where ever and when ever it is required.
