International Infection Prevention Week: Past – Present – Protected

Platinum Homecare proudly supports International Infection Prevention Week (19–25 October 2026). This global campaign highlights the importance of infection prevention in healthcare and homecare settings, reminding us that safeguarding health is a responsibility across generations.

Past:  

Inspired by Florence Nightingale, we uphold the timeless principles of cleanliness and ventilation, ensuring every home we care for remains a safe environment.

Present:

Our caregivers prioritise regular health check‑ups, hand hygiene, and safe use of protective equipment. These practices help us identify risks early and prevent infections before they spread.

Protected:

We safeguard families through quality homecare, delivered by well‑trained caregivers who combine professional skills with compassion. Every visit is designed to protect the health, dignity, and wellbeing of our patients.
