They're everywhere. They're invisible. And they're hitching a ride on our shoes: dirty, dangerous pathogens! On today's Episode 18 of my "Hank vs. the Robot" podcast series, I sit down with Sterile Simon to explore the often-overlooked connection between dirty floors, contaminated shoes, and our Sterile Processing mission.
We dive deep into recent research about how microbes move through healthcare facilities and what we can do to stop them in their tracks.
Key insights from this episode include:
🎯 How floors act as microbial reservoirs in healthcare settings
🎯 Why shoe covers might be giving us a false sense of security
🎯 The hidden dangers lurking in staff locker rooms
🎯 Game-changing technologies like UVC shoe sanitization
🎯 Whether antimicrobial flooring could be the future of infection prevention
Plus, we tackle the irony of calling a room "sterile storage" when its floor is anything but! Whether you're a department leader developing shoe policies or a tech wondering about your hospital shoes, this episode offers eye-opening insights into an invisible but important aspect of infection prevention.
