9 We care for your safety PROVIDING A SAFE ENVIRONMENT We take your safety seriously and encourage you to help us. Here s how you can help: Be actively involved in your own health care; Know who your care providers are. If we don t wear a name badge or introduce ourselves, ask for our names and positions; If there is a whiteboard in your room, ask for our names to be written on there; Ask if we have washed our hands we won t be offended; Make sure you understand what will happen if you need surgery or a procedure; Make sure we confirm your identity when drawing blood, doing procedures or giving medications; Ask what new medications are for; Question us if a medication looks different, the wrong colour or the wrong amount; Write down any questions you may have as they arise. If you don t know what we are talking about, ask us; Be sure you can read and understand any information given to you; and Make sure you understand what to do when you go home. INFECTION CONTROL St John of God Hospital Subiaco is committed to providing the safest possible care for you during your stay with us and our goal is to limit and prevent the spread of infection. We have an extensive program of infection control policies and procedures to ensure you receive safe care at all times. The program covers all aspects of the Hospital, from sterilisation of instruments through to cleaning and environmental standards. Hand hygiene before and after contact with patients is one of the most important measures our caregivers can take to reduce the risks of transmitting microorganisms from one person to another. In addition to hand washing our Hospital has introduced the use of antimicrobial hand gel for use by caregivers. This hand gel contains alcohol and it has been proven to destroy bacteria. In addition, caregivers providing care for patients with possible infections may be required to wear gowns, aprons, gloves, masks and eye protection during patient care. Sometimes it may be necessary to nurse patients in a single room to minimise the spread of infections. You can help us to help you avoid getting an infection during your hospital stay by taking some very simple precautions: Always wash your hands when leaving your room. Personal hygiene is very important. Soap is readily available so that you can wash your hands after each visit to the toilet. Complimentary toiletries are supplied for showering if you don t have any of your own. Always keep these for your own use and don t share with others. Please tell one of your caregivers if you have any concerns regarding the hygiene of your room or bathroom. Feel free to remind your caregivers to wash their hands or use the antimicrobial hand gel before attending to your care. Encourage your visitors to wash their hands or use the hand gel provided at the entrance to every ward. 9

11 On the day of your admission Your doctor will decide whether your admission requires overnight stay, several days in hospital or whether your treatment can be undertaken as a day case. Most patients are admitted on the day of their planned surgery. ADMISSION ON THE DAY OF YOUR OPERATION Please shower at home and remove all nail polish prior to admission. If you have false nails, it is necessary to remove one nail only. Please come to the Subiaco Clinic on McCourt Street. The Day of Surgery Admission Unit (DOSA) is located to the left of the foyer, past the lifts.

Our reception area has been designed with your comfort in mind and has some of the following features: Large comfortable resting chairs Televisions Laptop desks and Internet access points Magazines Outdoor courtyard with comfortable seating Your doctor sets the order of his/her operating list and decides what time you need to be admitted.

Please ensure that you are wearing warm clothes and that you have brought a book or some magazines to read while you wait. The waiting area also has computers with Internet access which you may use or you may wish to bring in your own laptop.
