  10. Impact on Own and Other’s Practice

  11. Perceived practice to be to a high standard already: • ‘Practice was at a high standard so feel the course helped improve this slightly’ •  ‘We had very good policies that we had implemented before I did the programme’ • Specific changes in practice: • ‘Pts now notice how many times we are cleaning our hands & comment on it.’ • ‘As far as the surgery went, the layout of it I changed a few things like sharps bins, etc they were situated at ground level where children could possibly come into contact with them.’ ‘

  12. Enablers

  13. Barriers

  14. Job Role • Positive impact: • additional training responsibility • became a practice resource • Short term impact: • an initial change before the status quo was resumed • No impact: • ‘Had hoped for an increase in responsibility but that didn’t happen. I don’t know what else I have to do to try and prove myself to get any more responsibility. Very frustrating…’ • ‘I thought I might have a bigger role and more confidence in me with the hassle of me going into this….’

  15. Cleanliness and order are not matters of instinct; they are matters of education and like most great things, you must cultivate a taste for them Benjamin Disraeli

  16. The clean person is not the one that runs away from dirt but one who takes the time and effort to tidy-up a dirty environment Adbulkabir Olatunji
