This is a well designed piece of research. It finds, unsurprisingly, that better cleaning = fewer hospital acquired infections = reduced costs.

How astonishing that such an argument needs to be made!

If we had more #respect for the #work done by #cleaners the connection between how well resourced they are to do their work, & outcomes for patients & costs to the hospital, would be obvious to all of us. Even hospital administrators.

When cleaning is contracted out & budgeted through line items that are separate from those used for clinical services, perverse incentives are created to ‘economise’ on non-clinical functions to improve a notional bottom line. I would guess something like this is at play here.

As is so often the case, the funding model is the problem. #health #hospitals #cleaning

Good morning tooters, welcome to #Friday & a lovely day ahead. It’s around 14c right now & heading to a rather warm & sunny 29c.
Yesterday didn’t go to plan at all, too much faffing around by me meant I didn’t do my balance class, nor did I go swimming 🤷🏼‍♀️. I did make my new little inground composter & set that up & moved the other inground composter I have, to a new spot. So I did actually do something but it was certainly a very slack day for me compared to my usual.
This morning is clean & dust the house & then head for a swim, probably straight after lunch. Young Miss 7 was going to be spending the day with me, but decided she wanted to go to work with her Daddy instead. He’s a concreter, so I think she will get very messy 😂, but she’ll enjoy her one on one time with him.
Hope everyone has a fabulous #Friday, enjoy the day 🌻.

Btw I’m sure some folks are waiting for the exciting conclusion of washing my runner that was dreadfully dirty and clogged with ground-in dog hair. Ta-da, here it is and look it’s not just all dirty gray and beige. A pattern even! If interested the photos and story was in my posts yesterday afternoon. #Cleaning

Here is that same dirty gray and tan carpet runner now soaking in the utility sink outside. This is the second soak. The first soak I used only water. Drained it and now soaking in Super Washing Soda. One more soak with a light detergent coming up next. #Cleaning #TipOfDay

The guide for the 3DS Circle Pad Replacement that I followed from the iFixit website was a big help especially when it warned me where I need to pay more attention otherwise I could easily damage parts like the little ribbon cables and more importantly where I can encounter glue. 🙂

The only thing that I wasn't warned about is the little transparent plastic piece underneath the the right hinge that use to diffuse the little red LED's light, that only turns on when the battery is in a very low level of charge. But there's other guides on their website in one of them they advise to pull that plastic piece before it will inadvertently fell off and will be hard to find after it.

📣 If any of you see this toot and planing to disassemble your original 3DS model make sure to pull that little transparent plastic and put it in a small box or in any container before loosing it ‼️ ‼️
