Last week, International Infection Prevention Week (IIPW) shone a light on the critical importance of infection prevention measures. As we reflect on the week, we want to highlight Copan’s FecalSwab?, a vital tool in infection control for healthcare settings. FecalSwab? is an innovative collection and transport system used globally in active screening programs to detect Multidrug-Resistant Organisms (MDROs) like CRE, ESBL, and C. difficile. Several studies have been published showcasing FecalSwab’s high sensitivity, fast turnaround times, and role in reducing healthcare-associated infections.

Preventing infections has never been more crucial in healthcare. It’s not just the safety of our patients but also the 1600 healthcare professionals working across our facilities nation wide. This Infection Prevention and Control (IPAC) Week, we're focusing on best practices and recognising the vital efforts of every team member in reducing the risk of infection. This year’s Australian IPAC theme, ‘Move the needle on IPC by breaking the chain of infection!’ highlights how we can all play a part in stopping the spread of pathogens. Simple, everyday actions in our hospitals, like comprehensive hand hygiene and protocols, are at the heart of our commitment to excellent care. Education never stops. We guide patients to be better equipped to fight off infection and optimise their recovery so they get back on their feet sooner. We’re proud of our achievements in this area, with zero postoperative infections reported in the last three months across all our facilities. At Nexus, infection prevention comes first as we strive to create the safest environment for everyone we welcome through our doors. #InfectionPrevention #HealthcareSafety #IPCWeek #PatientCare #NexusHospitals #FirstLineOfDefence #HospitalHygiene #HandHygiene
