Greetings!


When it comes to infection prevention, healthcare facilities have a lot to manage. One area that deserves continued attention is something used throughout the hospital every day: the water system.

From faucets and showers to complex piping networks, there are potential risks that aren't always visible. Conditions like water stagnation, dead legs, and inconsistent flushing can create challenges, particularly in areas serving vulnerable patients.

That's why understanding and assessing these risks is so important.

In this month's newsletter, we're highlighting the Water Infection Control Risk Assessment (WICRA) and how it helps healthcare teams identify potential risks, prioritize improvements, and take proactive steps to support patient safety.

WHAT IS A WATER INFECTION 
CONTROL RISK ASSESSMENT (WICRA)?

Identifying Risks Today to Help Protect Patients Tomorrow

A WICRA goes beyond simply evaluating pipes and fixtures. It considers the conditions within a hospital's water system, who may be exposed, and what actions can help reduce potential infection risks.

In our featured video, Gregory Paul of Water Saver Solutions explains:


• 💧 Common water system conditions that can increase infection risks.
• 🏥 Why patient vulnerability matters when evaluating water safety.
• 🔍 How a WICRA helps identify opportunities for preventive action.
• 🤝 The importance of collaboration between facilities, infection prevention, and water management teams.

Learn how a proactive approach to water risk assessment can help your facility make informed decisions and support a safer healthcare environment.
