The Health and Safety Executive (HSE) has contacted eight hospitals in the UK after Covid-related inspections uncovered health and safety contraventions that required formal action. Part of its national spot check inspection programme, HSE inspected 17 acute hospitals between November and January, including 13 NHS Trusts in England and two NHS Health Boards in Scotland and Wales respectively. In particular, HSE was scrutinising procedures put in place to ensure social distancing, cleaning and hygiene standards, ventilation, risk assessment, management arrangements specific to Covid-19, PPE, and how suspected cases were being dealt with. |
