Fourways Residential Home

At Fourways Residential Home we are fully committed to maintaining the highest standards of infection prevention and control to protect the health, safety, and wellbeing of our residents, staff, and visitors.

We understand that infection prevention is central to providing safe, high-quality residential care. Our approach follows the latest guidance from the UK Health Security Agency, NICE, and the Care Quality Commission (CQC), ensuring we meet and exceed best practice standards.

Our Key Principles:

• Maintain excellent hand hygiene practices at all times.
• Use Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) correctly and safely.
• Clean and disinfect all shared areas, bedrooms, and equipment regularly.
• Isolate and manage infection risks promptly in line with our infection control policy.
• Encourage and support residents to maintain personal hygiene and wellbeing.
• Report, record, and review any infection incidents without delay.
• Ensure all staff complete regular infection control training and refresher courses.

Our goal is to minimise the risk of infection transmission within our home and create a safe, clean, and comfortable environment for everyone who lives, visits, and works here.

**Together, we make infection prevention everyone’s responsibility.**
