As one of the most common sources of preventable harm, healthcare-associated infections are among the leading threats to resident safety:1


common, costly and often fatal.2


Good infection prevention practices are vital to keeping residents and healthcare staff safe. So choosing the right equipment for human waste disposal processes is essential to minimise the transmission of preventable infections.3


Our fully equipped sluice room solutions incorporate safe infrastructure, while supporting more efficient workflows and optimal human and material resource management.


Arjo has outlined four cornerstones of an efficient sluice room design to facilitate good infection control routines:


1. Soiled area 2. Hand washbasin 3. Flusher disinfector 4. Clean storage area


Clean hands on clean goods is the dominant rule for all working procedures in the soiled utility room.
