Hello IPCIreland members

Hibiscrub is being discontinued in the Irish market due to licensing issues, this also has an impact on Unisept supplies.

What alternative products are you bringing in?

Hello IPCIreland members

When dedicating stethoscopes in patient rooms, staff do not like to use them due to the earpiece being difficult to clean.

Do any of you use disposable ear pieces for stethoscopes? If yes could you please private message me the name of your supplier?

Thanks
