Hi Jean,
In SLH Rathgar we are adopting a guide dog, we are working on an SOP still but the arrangements for now are:
The dog is adopted by a staff member, there are 4 people who will be looking after the dog during working hours and their offices have been reassured to facilitate enhanced cleaning. The dog will go back home with the staff who adopted him. We are looking into scheduled visit around the hospital certain days and certain times always in order to facilitate the cleaning of the area after the visit.
We have established pet friendly chemicals for the areas were the dog would spend most of the time, and a cleaning routine of all equipment belonging to the dog. We have established an area for the dog physiological needs.
The SOP is still in progress, but if you wish I can share it once ready.
I hope this helps.

We have an SOP in SLH Rathgar, it is based on environmental monitoring alert limits and alert action. We completed a 6 weeks study in set areas to define them. Some references can be found in the decontamination white paper and something in the national policy for Standards and Recommended Practices for Operational Management of
Endoscope Decontamination. I think it will be very difficult to create an SOP without a study conducted and supported by an accredited company.

Good morning all,
I have a project starting in Beaumont SLRON center, we choose the Shiva devices as after a trial we found that beside filtrating the air the fan mode helps to keep the environment fresh, there is no noise increase when the fan speed is increased. I find they are a valid compromise.
