Curious to know the basics of hospital ventilation?
As a first-line healthcare worker, it is essential to protect yourself, your patients, and the community from infectious disease. Apart from washing hands and surfaces, the air quality is in focus. As the pandemic has shown us, contagious aerosols can travel far under favorable conditions, and it is important to protect us from threatening airborne infections.
The American Society for Health Care Engineering, ASHE, has a national collaboration with U.S Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) where the basics of hospital ventilation is presented. The collaboration is called Project Firstline, and the partnership has produced several videos to show how ventilation is important and crucial for a safe healthcare environment.
Take a look at the link below to improve your knowledge in ventilation and the importance of air quality.
Enjoy!
