Hand hygiene and skin care specialists, Deb, will be showcasing their hand hygiene innovation at this year’s Infection Prevention Society (IPS) annual conference.
Taking place from Sunday 30 September to Tuesday 2 October at the Scottish Event Campus Centre, Glasgow, Deb will be exhibiting on stand 140, introducing its DebMed programme to visitors.
Visitors will have the chance to find out more about the programme, which incorporates Deb’s GMS system to electronically monitor soap and sanitiser dispensers and capture hand hygiene events, providing real-time data based on the World Health Organisation’s (WHO’s) 5-Moments of Hand Hygiene standard.
Paul Jakeway, Marketing Director at Deb, said: “The IPS conference presents an ideal opportunity to highlight the current industry challenges, our solution to effectively capture hand hygiene events, and speak to visitors about how their hand hygiene provision could look.
“We have recently submitted evidence to Parliament outlining the need for improvement when it comes to antimicrobial resistance and the role that hand hygiene can play. We’re looking forward to sharing our plans with visitors and the steps that Deb is taking to ensure electronic monitoring systems are implemented in Healthcare settings.”
Dr. John Hines, Research and Development Director at Deb, will be hosting a seminar on the future of hand hygiene in the digital age at the conference, while the team will be handing out samples and goody bags to stand visitors.
