Day 8 of Elfmas!
Superbugs vs super elves! But do you know superbugs are just resistant organisms? Antimicrobial resistance is a huge threat. Prevent infection, use antimicrobials correctly and sample where possible to guide treatment!

Elfmas Day 7! π¦·
Oral hygiene is important for preventing infections such as pneumonia, dental infections and even endocarditis.
Brush teeth twice a day with a fluoride toothpaste & ask people if they need any help with this important task!

5th day of elfmas!
These two have been caught red (and green handed) painting on the wall.
Elves you canβt use hand gel to clean your hands if they are visibly dirty! It definately wonβt remove paint.
If there is visible grime on your hands you need to wash with soap and water

4th Day of Elfmas!
Just found this βlessonβ about stool types going on.
Remember always use the Bristol Stool Chart if monitoring stools, and seek advice if there is a change in consistency, colour or frequency of your poo or there is blood in it!

What a pair of bananas! π
Did you know fruit and veg can be a great source of fluid to help towards staying hydrated?
Staying hydrated can help to prevent UTI, reduce falls and aid skin integrity.
Stay hydrated and healthy!
