VIRTUAL EVENT

 

 

Friday, June 4, 10:00 AM Central

The 2019 WHO/UNICEF report on water, sanitation and hygiene (WASH) in healthcare facilities (HCFs) outlined the stark inadequacy of WASH services in HCFs around the world, especially in least developed countries. Access to safe WASH is required to prevent and control infections, and ensure safe treatment of patients, staff and families. Learn about WASH in HCFs and what your club can do to help address this critical issue.

Meet keynote speaker Joanne McGriff, MD, MPH, a renowned expert and wonderful speaker who will describe the challenge we face. Water, sanitation, hygiene are critical for healthcare facilities. Rotarians have an important role in addressing this challenge.
