Motion text

That this House congratulates and supports the Nursing Times magazine for its `Keep it Clean: back nurses to fight infection' campaign to support nurses in cutting rates of MRSA and other healthcare-associated infections (HAIs); notes that a survey carried out by the magazine found that over one-quarter of nurses rate cleaning services as `poor' or `very poor', that three-quarters say unrestricted visiting rules contribute to HAIs, that three-quarters do not have access to an in-house laundry at work, that half do not have a designated area for changing, and that two out of five say they do not have enough time to clean beds between patients; and calls on the Government to give nurses the appropriate power to enable them to fight HAIs.
