Catherine House Surgery is committed to the control of infection within the building and in relation to clinical procedures carried out within it. Wherever possible or practical the practice will seek to use washable or disposable materials for items such as soft furnishings and consumables, e.g. seating materials, wall coverings including paint, couch rolls, modesty sheets, curtains, floor coverings, etc., and ensure that these are laundered, cleaned or changed frequently to minimise the risk of infection.
