Are you using antimicrobials correctly?

The antimicrobial family includes medications many people have used, such as antibiotics, antivirals, antifungals and antiparasitics. These medications are essential for treating various health conditions, including those affecting the eyes, ears, nose, and throat.

During Antimicrobial Awareness Week, we’re promoting ways in which we can all help to keep these medications effective – and keeping good hand hygiene is an easy way we can all contribute!

Sanitising your hands upon entering a hospital or medical spaces is an important step in leaving infections at the door. For more information why and when to use hand hygiene, please visit here: https://bit.ly/491A9jo

Together we can help prevent antimicrobial resistance, and support staff and patients across our hospitals

As part of our “You said, we did!” initiative we share examples of how valuable patient feedback has directly influenced improvements around the hospital, like reducing confusion around which bin to use for your rubbish. Have you got a suggestion? https://bit.ly/3LFUgaa

The Eye and Ear’s Christmas appeal is live!

Meet Jordan - a brave 10-year-old who’s been a patient at the Eye and Ear since she was just six months old. Jordan has undergone eight eye surgeries to treat a rare condition affecting the muscles and nerves that control her eye movement.
Her mum, Adele, shared:

“Before each surgery, Jordan feels scared and worried. So do I, but I do my best not to show her my fear. She has what she calls ‘bravery toys’ and chooses one or two to bring with her to the hospital each time.”

This Christmas, your donation can help more children like Jordan receive the care they need to see the world clearly: https://bit.ly/4fNFSM6
