Air cleaning machines are helping to reduce risks of infections on wards and clinical areas at ESNEFT.
We’ve introduced 200 of the air filtration units – also known as air scrubbers – across clinical areas at Ipswich Hospital, Colchester Hospital, Clacton Hospital and community hospitals in east Suffolk.
The portable machines suck in air and the filters remove viral particles before re-releasing cleaner air. It helps reduce the spread of airborne illnesses including COVID-19.
Another 200 of the air scrubbers have now been purchased and will be delivered to clinical areas soon. This brings the total investment in the clean air machines by ESNEFT and the Suffolk and North East Essex Integrated Care Board to £180,000.
