Washing hands

Podcast: World Hand Hygiene Day

SCA is proud to share new research looking at the prevalence of bacteria found within patient surroundings. This recent study sponsored by Vinnova, the Swedish government looked at ways to decrease health care-associated infections. In this podcast we spoke with Brigitta Bergstrom, a microbiologist involved in the Vinnova project, and Carolyn Berland, a senior scientist in R&D at SCA to discuss the findings from the study and why hand hygiene is so crucial in health care settings.
