Love the Skin You're In
MEG Support Tools are going to be supporting the upcoming South Wales Branch IPS meeting Tuesday June 26th at the Cardiff Mercure Holland House Hotel in Cardiff. We will be demonstrating how our hygiene auditing system enables frontline medical workers to spend more time with patients and less time with administrative workloads. The MEG auditing solution is used in several NHS locations including Guy's & St. Thomas, Velindre and The Christie, Manchester. We have received some great reviews from our customers;
'The infection control team in GSTT have implemented the MEG audits system based on its easy of use, quality of reports and value for money. MEG's support and partnership in adapting the system to our needs has been very helpful and will help to maintain our hygiene standards and increase the effectiveness of our team’
Neil Wigglesworth, Deputy Director, IPC, Guys & St.Thomas' NHS Foundation Trust
Our tools can be customised according to local standards providing accurate and in-dept analysis of your own auditing data. If you'd like to take advantage of our free trial offer, email kerrill@megsupporttools.com and I can set you up with a free account.
Looking forward to seeing you in Cardiff!
