Daily Express: Hundreds of hospitals fail to hit hygiene target
MORE than one in four NHS trusts is failing to hit targets for hygiene and cleanliness, according to an official report.
Despite soaring rates of killer bugs such as Clostridium difficile, standards for hand washing, ward cleanliness and isolating sick patients are not being met.
A report by the NHS watchdog the Healthcare Commission found that 111 of Britain’s 394 trusts failed to meet at least one core standard on infection control.
