Supporting local animal clinics in their vital work 🦔 We recently donated a number of our Instrapac® procedure packs to a small wildwife hospital, Tiggywinkles in Haddenham, Buckinghamshire. It was great to hear from the team at Tiggwinkles as they shared with us these images from the team, showing our products in use during an operation on a Hedgehog who unfortunately required an operation on his leg. He is now on the mend following an excellent surgery with expert products and will be back in the wild once he's ready. 🦔🏥 #Instrapac #SurgicalSolutions

Does this sound familiar to you? - Care Receivers want a 'real wash' with water. This is a common comment that we hear, but actually, in our clinical user trials, 84% of users told us that they would prefer to use a waterless bathing solution as opposed to soap and water if they were bedbound. Additionally, we've also trialed our products in UK hospitals where healthcare professionals observed significant gains in patient comfort, satisfaction, and dignity when using the Conti Waterless Bathing range, and saw a reduction in pain. We recognise that this is a change in practice, so why not trial our Waterless Bathing products for free first?

What can be more scary this Halloween than a contaminated sink?! 😱💧 Sinks in healthcare facilities can become contaminated with multidrug-resistant organisms, that can stick to the pipes to form biofilm. In fact, in a study in French ICUs, 51% of sinks were found to be contaminated with MDR bacteria. Our recently published article has some pretty scary stats in there too: https://ow.ly/v3MZ50TQ2q4 #WaterlessBathing #RemoveWaterSaveLives #InfectionPrevention

We are teaming up with Henry Royce Institute at The University of Manchester to revolutionise the use of single-use plastics in healthcare. Through a Knowledge Transfer Partnership (KTP), we will work in collaboration with material experts at Manchester in a 24 month project to investigate how the sustainability of plastics can be improved through the creation of more circular products from waste polypropylene (PP) and polycarbonate (PC). The team will be led by experts including Dr Tom McDonald , Dr Rosa Cuellar-Franca , Professor Michael Shaver , Simon Hogg, and Dr Amir Bolouri , and aims to create new insight into the behaviour of real-world polypropylene and polycarbonate products during mechanical recycling. Alex Hodges , CEO, explains: “Through this project we aim to change how plastics are viewed and used in healthcare. Our work with Manchester will ensure we’re at the forefront in sustainable single use healthcare product research. It will enable us to embed product lifecycle, environment assessment capability and materials research and development into our business culture so that we’re in pole position, able to lead the market in the development and testing of future solutions. It will also help Vernacare economically, by offsetting a portion of our £7m annual polypropylene costs while also broadening their appeal to eco-conscious customers.” Dr Tom McDonald, Reader in Sustainable Materials at The University of Manchester adds, “This project directly connects our prior research on plastics recycling with commercial benefits associated with Vernacare’s mission to protect patient safety while reducing environmental impact. As such, this collaborative project provides the opportunity for direct impact from our research." By working together, we're aiming to lead the way in sustainable healthcare products, ensuring a healthier planet for future generations.
