GAMA Healthcare’s eBook explores the importance of surface decontamination and patient hygiene to prevent the spread of bacteria and viruses in healthcare settings.
In healthcare environments, harmful microorganisms can be found everywhere – from surfaces such as door handles and countertops to shared equipment or on people. Due to this problem, every year millions of patients across Europe contract some kind of Healthcare Associated Infection (HCAI).
Founded in 2004 by doctors Guy Braverman and Allen Hanouka, infection prevention specialists GAMA Healthcare recognises the importance of disinfection products that would help to solve many small problems that contribute to the spread of infection in healthcare settings.
To tackle the issue, GAMA has developed a diverse portfolio of disinfection products, ranging from specialised isolation products to personal hygiene products, and has secured several patented formulations for a variety of surface disinfection products. These innovations are scientifically proven to prevent infection and are backed by clinical evidence for use in healthcare, corporate, and household environments.
Infection prevention products
Maintaining high standards of hygiene and cleanliness within healthcare settings is paramount to curbing the spread of bacteria and viruses. These environments harbour vulnerable individuals and are breeding grounds for infectious agents. Rigorous hygiene practices serve as a vital line of defence, safeguarding patients, healthcare workers, and visitors.
Moreover, HCAI poses significant threats, impacting patient recovery and straining healthcare resources. Adhering to strict hygiene and cleaning routines drastically reduces these risks, lowering hospital stays, healthcare costs, and mortality rates.
Many bacteria and viruses, including COVID-19 and drug-resistant pathogens, can often remain on surfaces in healthcare environments following normal disinfection procedures, meaning they need a more powerful agent to remove them from surfaces and equipment.
GAMA Healthcare explores some of its innovative products that can help combat the issue of hard-to-kill viruses and dry biofilms on surfaces which contribute to persistent outbreaks, such as its Clinell Peracetic Acid Wipes, which can provide enhanced disinfection, the world’s first mobile isolation room – the Rediroom – and other flagship products, such as the Carell Bedbath Range.
Introducing Rediair: Your solution to clean, purified air
Later in the eBook, you will learn about GAMA Healthcare’s revolutionary air purification system. In a world where air contamination and inadequate ventilation pose significant health risks, Rediair emerges as the ultimate answer. Pathogens, particulates, and unpleasant odours often linger in poorly ventilated spaces, creating an environment ripe for the spread of illnesses like influenza or coronavirus. Rediair steps in as a game-changer.
Compact yet remarkably powerful, Rediair is a portable air purification device designed to deliver exceptional performance. Its Clean Air Delivery Rate (CADR) surpasses expectations, providing a level of purification that outshines its compact size.
What sets Rediair apart is its ability to instantly filter the air. Equipped with dual HEPA 14 and carbon filters, it swiftly captures airborne pathogens, including bacteria, fungi, and viral aerosols.
