Reducing couch roll (or other products)

Hi,

I'm wondering if anyone has any resources they can share that have been used in your workplaces to communicate initiatives with staff, such as reducing couch roll or other products e.g. gloves. Have you used education materials on where it should be used;  posters, comms or campaign materials; desktop messages etc?

 

We would be interested in any resources you have used to get the messaging out to your staff.

I agree we could use less and just wipe down the surfaces between patients for less intensive situations. It’s a lot of paper just thrown away. Also prob could just go into normal waste rather than clinical waste unless visibly contaminated.
