1 We protect your health. Dr. Schumacher Safety made simple
2 Our focus is people. Jens Schumacher Discover the New Simplicity in Disinfection and Hygiene The field of disinfection and hygiene is becoming more and more complex. Divergent national provisions, European standards and international guidelines and their construction by industry leave a great deal of room for interpretation and debate. This has created uncertainty in the market and carries the risk that you, as a user, may no longer have a clear overview. We want to change that. Dr. Schumacher is putting the emphasis back on people again. Our experts have analysed the multi-faceted field of disinfection and hygiene and developed a practical approach that offers a simple structure of guidance for any requirement, in any area of application. With our new structure, you can be certain, which measures and products are required in which situation.
3 Dr. Schumacher Hygiene Levels Simplicity and transparency are the foundations on which our concept is based. We are there to guide you through each level. Through the systematic use of hygiene measures tailored to the potential risk you can achieve the maximum effect while working efficiently and economically. Dr. Schumacher Hygiene Levels: PREVENT :: PRESERVE :: PROTECT
4 PREVENT Level Collective Prevention In public areas of health care facilities it is important to create a safe environment for patients, staff and visitors. Waiting areas, public corridors and offices are the first points of contact in the spread of infectious diseases. Preventative disinfection measures can inhibit the spread of pathogens. Knowledge of the potential risk of infection determines the appropriate spectrum of activity. PRESERVE Level Collective Preservation As soon as we move from public areas into the wards and outpatient treatment areas, there are many factors that increase the risk of of infection. Hygiene and and disinfection in general in general tre- treatment and and ward ward rooms rooms have have higher higher requirements requirements and focus and on focus the on patient s the patient s immediate immediate surroundings. Awareness Awareness of the of hygiene the hygiene requirements in this in this environment protects protects patients pa- and tients staff and from staff from additional additional negative negative effects. effects. In this In this context, con- appropriate text, appropriate disinfection disinfection measures measures with higher with higher efficacy efficacy stan- standards are employed. are employed. PROTECT Level Collective Protection In isolated areas of medical facilities as well as in outbreak situations, the risk of acquiring an infectious disease or further compromising the health of an already weakened patient is very high. In intensive care units, oncology or neonatology, the focus for hygiene is on maximum efficacy with awareness of the requirements in high-risk areas. Targeted disinfection measures protect the health and life of individuals.
