Each year, an estimated 34 million cases of healthcare-associated infections (HAIs) occur globally.¹ Your mission is to understand the importance of your role in preventing the spread of HAIs, using Clinell solutions to make a difference.
Your tools
Use Clinell Universal Wipes for everyday decontamination and Clinell Hand Wipes for cleaning and disinfecting hands-proven to be as effective as soap and water. For enhanced decontamination, use Clinell Peracetic Acid Wipes and Clinell Enhanced Pods.
Your goal
To be successful, ensure you regularly decontaminate shared medical equipment and high-touch surfaces after every patient to avoid outbreaks. Regularly clean both your own, and patients' hands, to break the chain of infection.
Your resources
Explore useful resources, designed to help you reduce HAIs in your facility. You'll find Microbe Mission fact sheets, cleaning instructions, call-to-action posters, our CLEEN study resources and information around additional dispenser installation at your facility.
Meet the microbes!
Don't underestimate the microbes! They're far more dangerous than they look, and an outbreak of any of them can risk patients' lives, prove costly to eradicate and be difficult, and time-consuming to manage.

Discover your mission!
Download our winter call-to-action posters, designed to remind nurses and cleaners of the importance of effective cleaning, enhanced decontamination, good hand hygiene and the significance of cleaning shared medical equipment and surfaces after every interaction.
Step-by-step cleaning instructions
Access our online cleaning protocols, designed to provide step-by-step guides outlining the correct method, products and procedures for cleaning specific equipment in your facility. They ensure effective infection control, compliance and consistency across cleaning practice, helping you reduce the risk of HAIs in your facility.
Ask us about Clinell dispenser installations
Placing more dispensers at the point-of-use is proven to improve environmental cleaning frequency by 33.6%, leading to improved compliance and improved patient mortality2.
Contact us today to enquire about additional dispenser installations in your facility, and one of our team will be in touch to discuss how we can help.
We can also help you carry out a dispenser audit, to manage your existing installations, note any empty and damaged dispensers and suggest locations for new dispenser installations.
