Q: Where can you work where a puppy often visits & there are resident ducklings (clue, it's not a farm)?
A: Only Central Services in the KMH Path Lab! Don't be jel if you're at a Trust without puppies & ducks.

No target = No action. Vast majority of Staph BSI had no cause provided to the national surveillance scheme . So 🤷 🎯? Instead of 'ambitions' and 'thresholds' for GNB (with no real penalties) why not focus on SSI, CAUTI, HAP, CLABSI and support IPC teams with surveillance tools. – at North West, England
