This is a well designed piece of research. It finds, unsurprisingly, that better cleaning = fewer hospital acquired infections = reduced costs.
How astonishing that such an argument needs to be made!
If we had more #respect for the #work done by #cleaners the connection between how well resourced they are to do their work, & outcomes for patients & costs to the hospital, would be obvious to all of us. Even hospital administrators.
When cleaning is contracted out & budgeted through line items that are separate from those used for clinical services, perverse incentives are created to ‘economise’ on non-clinical functions to improve a notional bottom line. I would guess something like this is at play here.
As is so often the case, the funding model is the problem. #health #hospitals #cleaning
