Safe Laundry Management in Care Settings

Used bed linen, towels and clothing can carry germs that spread infection if they are handled carelessly. Based on the National Infection Prevention and Control Manual, learn how to categorise, handle, bag, transport, wash and store linen safely in care homes and other care settings – protecting residents, staff and laundry workers.

This course provides general infection prevention awareness only. It does not replace your organisation’s infection prevention and control policies, training from your IPC lead, or advice from your local health protection team, and it is not an accredited qualification.
