Warwickmed is practicing sustained efforts to make a greener planet and making patient communication more effective with the help of named theatre caps.
The NHS is a huge organization with over 1.3 million staff. With this type of huge facility we are directly responsible for nearly 4-5 % of the country’s carbon and air pollution with a major effect on the complete healthcare system. Post Covid it’s mandatory for everyone at NHS to wear a surgical mask; thus, the number of blue surgical masks being produced and discarded has skyrocketed. It’s estimated that over 54 million masks are binned every day; that’s more than 1.6 billion every month!
Not only they cannot be recycled, but they also take over 20 years to break down, because they contain cellulose fibers which causes harm to the environment and wildlife. Warwick Med produces and distributes washable surgical theatre caps that can be reused for years, and meet infection control guidelines, thus, no more bin loads of caps going to landfill every day, and a considerable saving to each hospital or NHS trust!
At Warwickmed we are concerned about patient communication and safety thus we came up with named theatre caps, as misidentification and miscommunication causes problems and impact patients’ anxiety and recovery. Without knowing whom to address their concerns or questions to, many patients feel isolated and with no control over their care.
