Staff urged to maintain effective hygiene
Health workers are being told to commit to reducing infection risks in hospitals and the wider community.
A new policy to improve safety, named ANTT (Aseptic Non Touch Technique), has been adopted by the Department of Health and Social Care.
It's aimed at minimising outbreaks of illness through a standardised hygiene routine.
An increased focus on hand-washing, as well as extra patient screening, successfully limited the spread of MRSA at Noble's after an outbreak in 2015.
Health Minister David Ashford says a large part of it is about small changes:
Review of taxi fares extended to assess impact of Middle East conflict
Liverpool ferry terminal closed again this weekend
Working smoke alarms save lives
Owner of a block of flats fined for failing to meet fire safety regulations
