Protecting the healthcare industry from pest infestations

High patient and visitor turnover, multiple entry points and sources of food can make managing pest control in healthcare facilities challenging. The business impact of pest infestations can range from damage to electrical items, to the contamination of equipment that can result in infections that cause serious medical complications for your patients. This can lead to patient complaints, revenue losses, litigation and compensation claims and long-lasting damage to your organisation’s reputation.

Rentokil understands the impact that pests can have on your facilities, the importance of protecting your patients’ health and wellbeing and the need to adhere to ever-tightening regulations. That’s why we believe it’s essential that healthcare companies take appropriate measures to facilitate the prevention, early detection and control of pests.
