If you’re interested in prioritising patient care through infection prevention, speak to Bio-Rite
Leading infection control company, Bio-Rite, is currently recruiting franchisees across the UK. The franchise offers the opportunity to run an interesting and rewarding business in a lucrative marketplace.
The healthcare decontamination sector has seen rapid growth in recent years. The challenges faced by healthcare providers is only set to continue as they struggle to cope with the increasing threat from infections such as MRSA, C.Difficile and norovirus.
As a group, Bio-Rite has more than 40 years’ experience in infection control, providing tailored services to the NHS, local authorities and care and nursing homes.
As well as area decontamination, Bio-Rite provides equipment recycling, which enables beds and mobility apparatus to be decontaminated safely and effectively. It also supplies a mattress decontamination service that meets the needs of NHS hospitals, private clinics and nursing homes and complies with all infection control guidelines.
When it comes to infection control, if correct decontamination procedures cannot be adhered to easily, overcrowding in our hospitals can increase the risk of the spread of common pathogens.
In a bygone era, wards would follow a rotation arrangement, where the free ward could be cleaned thoroughly and decontaminated while it was empty. These days, however, this is not possible and staff need to decontaminate beds and areas quickly, so they can be back in use with the minimum of delay.
Outsourcing certain services such as decontamination is one way to cope with a growing number of patients. This approach can let nursing staff focus on their primary role of patient care.
By partnering with healthcare professionals, Bio-Rite has developed an operational strategy that enables organisations to meet prescribed performance indicators and, in turn, make a significant contribution to providing the best infection free environment for vulnerable patients.
As well as the NHS, care homes also represent an important area of Bio-Rite’s work. Some of this relates to educating staff, as well as providing decontamination through its network of franchisees.
Bio-Rite is one of the few companies in the UK able to offer a range of products and services that are needed to ensure an infection free healthcare environment. For example, over 250 hospital ward decontaminations have successfully been performed by the company over the last six years.
Using specialised equipment, including Hydrogen Peroxide Vapour technology, Bio-Rite can decontaminate areas that are infected or are prone to infection and its service has been proven in over 40 NHS hospitals across the UK.
Bio-Rite combines the best practices involved with both manual and mechanical disinfection techniques, while taking advantage of the latest advances in safe and effective decontamination technology, an approach that’s unmatched in the industry.
As a result, the company delivers a decontamination solution that is flexible, comprehensive and cost-effective to its many clients, who rely on the company to deliver day in, day out.
From its ISO9001 accredited facility in Alton, Hampshire, Bio-Rite is now extending its services throughout the UK. The company’s aim is to continue to make a valuable contribution to society by recruiting and training more dedicated franchisees to help make a significant impact on reducing infection within UK institutions for the benefit of patient safety.
Bio-Rite offers suitable candidates the chance to running their own successful franchised businesses. So far, the response has exceeded the company’s expectations.
Candidates who will become successful Bio-Rite franchisees are selfmotivated and get on well with people. Ideally, they will have management and sales experience. However, as full training and help with set up is provided, the franchise could be suitable for anyone with a broad background in business and who is determined, prepared to work hard and has the enthusiasm to succeed.
The Bio-Rite franchise has already been pre-approved by leading UK banks for up to 60 per cent lending. Bio-Rite is also a British Franchise Association provisional member and staff and franchisees are also members of the Infection Prevention Society.
