Productive and informative discussion on PPE sustainability. Useful to have perspectives from other parts of Europe - similar challenges, all trying different approaches. Recognise the importance having endorsement at a government level for resource and buy in but also need senior leaders on the ground to make the changes. Visual resources thought to be impactful - illustrating inappropriate glove by comparing to the weight of ambulances, using see through waste bags so waste is obvious. Stock control issues also leading to waste - need to question/research about expiry dates. Other research questions - how do we measure infection prevention and not just glove reduction, are plastic aprons worse for droplet transmission compared to more absorbent materials.
Some people asked for access to the slides used during the session - you can collect them from this WeTransfer link for the next 48h https://we.tl/t-pCrVZGCchs
