According to the Department of Health: ‘HCAIs cost the health service around £1 billion per year. In addition, evidence suggests that service users with an MRSA bacteraemium spend on average an additional 10 days in hospital, while those with C.difficile spend an additional 21 days in hospital. Reducing HCAIs helps the NHS make the most of its resources and deliver more for its service users.’
