It all begins with an idea.

Functional separation in infection control refers to the strategic division or segregation of various functions, processes, or areas within a healthcare or other relevant setting to prevent the spread of infections. The goal is to create distinct zones or procedures that help minimize the risk of cross-contamination and enhance overall infection prevention. That’s a fancy way to say “Keep contaminated items away from clean items.”

Just like in a hospital, inadequate hand hygiene among healthcare laundry workers in the laundry is a major risk for the transmission of infections.

Hospital-acquired infections (HAIs) continue to pose a significant threat to patient safety, leading to increased morbidity, mortality, and healthcare costs.
