Mixed Sex Accommodation
Need a privacy solution?
THE PROBLEM
Across the NHS, breaches of Mixed Sex Accommodation cost individual Trusts thousands of pounds in fines every month. The existing solutions such as ward relocations and building work are costly, and take time.
THE SOLUTION
KwickScreens are a quick, cost effective and flexible solution, that allow trusts to avoid expensive fines. A KwickScreen can pay for itself within a month. Due to the size of the fines (£250 per patient, per breach, per day) KwickScreens represent a clear saving to NHS Trusts. Since original guidance on MSA was issued, requiring a floor to ceiling partition, many CQC inspectors have permitted KwickScreens a highly effective solution, where floor to ceiling partitions are either impractical or there is a lack of budget.
THE BENEFITS
• Quick to assemble to separate male
and female patients
• Cost effective, a KwickScreen can
pay for itself within a month
• Small storage footprint
