ECOLAB PATIENT ROOM PROGRAM

Scientific studies show the patient environment is often not a safe environment. On average, less than 50% of critical surfaces is regularly disinfected. Other studies and our lengthy experience prove that when executed in a systematic, programmatic way, cleaning results can be improved dramatically.

The Ecolab Patient Room Program enables your team to work smarter, not harder.

It provides you with actionable information on how our best in class products are used most effectively. Additionally, our 24/7 accessible Customer Portal shows you which parts in your facility are performing well when it comes to cleaning, and which need attention. For the areas that need attention, our specialists develop and implement tailored trainings.

In close cooperation with you, we can help increase your compliance, patient safety, and prevent Healthcare Associated Infection - including the costs that are related to these.
