At Essity we offer a training package aimed specifically at healthcare cleaners. Tork Interactive Clean Hospital Training incorporates various tips and tricks for safe healthcare cleaning and also includes a ‘train-the-trainer’ module. This features a mini-microbiology element that deals with the dangers posed by microorganisms in healthcare. The training is available in more than 15 languages besides English including French, Spanish, German, Arabic and Somali.


Since not everyone will visit the washroom during their wait in A&E, hand sanitiser units should be made available throughout the facility so everyone has a chance to cleanse their hands.

These units should be easy to spot and act as a timely prompt for patients. The Tork Alcohol Hand Sanitiser is available in the Tork Hygiene Stand on which handwashing messaging may be prominently displayed.


Keeping to waiting targets is proving to be a constant struggle for healthcare units in Ireland and in many other countries as well. However, hospitals can do what they can to reduce the cross-infection risks by keeping their waiting rooms clean and by ensuring that the washrooms are safe, hygienic spaces where people find it easy to practice good hand hygiene at regular intervals.
