WHAT’S NEW?
TORK SUPPORTS WORLD HAND HYGIENE DAY WITH
HEALTHCARE TRAINING Essity’s award-winning Tork VR Clean Hands Training can now be accessed free of charge via any electronic device.
Based on the World Health Organisation’s Five Moments for Hand Hygiene, the module previously required the use of a virtual reality headset. By creating a desktop version Essity has made it easier than ever for healthcare staff to access effective hand hygiene guidance.
The new training platform has been launched in time for World Hand Hygiene Day on 5th May.
“Hand hygiene has always been crucial in healthcare and the pandemic has made it even more so,” said Essity’s Healthcare Marketing Director Tom Bergin. “Healthcare professionals are carrying out tremendous work to secure hand hygiene compliance to protect their patients and themselves. But they are also seeking ways to improve.
“By making Tork Clean Hands Training available on desktop and other platforms we are empowering healthcare professionals to train whenever and wherever they want.”
Tork Clean Hands Training invites users into a digital world where they are presented with a series of scenarios in which hand hygiene needs to be carried out. Developed in collaboration with behavioural scientists, university hospitals and hand hygiene experts, the course aims to provide hand hygiene guidance in an engaging and inspiring way.
