As surgeries resume, we understand you’re balancing so many priorities including patient and staff respiratory protection, inventory and staffing challenges, and managing patient flow – all with new restrictions.
Treating every patient with the highest level of care is more important now than ever. Addressing risk by implementing standardised practices around evidence-based protocols for every patient will help reduce the risk of complications. Complications that can reduce your efficiency and may impact other factors such as access, quality, and cost of patient care. 3M is here to help with science-centered solutions and clinically efficacious therapies, so you can focus on what matters most.
