LEADING THE CHANGE
THE POSITIVES
OUR MISSION
Warwick Med is leading the change from disposable theatre caps to reusable “name and role” cloth hats. These are already boosting staff morale and reducing patients’ anxiety as they enable everyone to identify the people around them, quickly and easily.
“The biggest difference I noticed was on Monday when people addressed me by my name a lot more than usual” “The team huddle is all well and good in the morning, but I don’t remember everyone’s names and if we had named caps for everyone that would be great” Dr Mruga Diwan, Royal Liverpool
Our mission is to improve communication among healthcare professionals and patients by sharing best practice and promoting the many benefits of our eco-friendly, personalised caps.
Nuestra misión
WarwickMed está liderando el cambio de gorras de teatro desechables a "sombreros reutilizables para nombres y roles". Ya estamos viendo resultados positivos con la moral del personal..
Los efectos positivos
“Los sombreros de colores iluminan el departamento, los cirujanos y los pacientes preguntan sobre funciones abreviadas, por ejemplo, ODP o ODSW.
Ahorro de costes
No le sorprenderá que cambiar de tapones desechables a reutilizables ahorre dinero, pero podría sorprenderle cuánto. Veamos un ejemplo de dos formas diferentes.
THE POSITIVES
There is a real power in using first names – hearing our name is proven to activate patterns in the brain which make us more alert and responsive. Wearers are instantly recognisable as a staff member, their role is clear and defined, with a first name to be addressed by.
# Leading the change
“Los errores médicos en los hospitales son la tercera causa principal de muerte en los Estados Unidos, detrás de las enfermedades cardíacas y el cáncer. A nivel mundial se cree que los errores médicos matan a más personas que el VIH,
Un hospital promedio de 20 quirófanos normalmente desecharía alrededor de un mínimo de 100.000 tapones por año que van a parar a un vertedero. Nuestros sombreros durarán al menos 3 años, que también pueden reutilizarse al final de su vida útil (triturados y utilizados como aislamiento para varias cosas, por ejemplo, puertas de automóviles).

The Results Are In..
The purpose of this review was to gather information from NHS hospital staff who have implemented or are planning to implement wearing cloth hats in the Theatre environment. The company wanted to explore the end user’s experience in the instigation and utilisation of cloth caps compared to disposable hats and demonstrate that they work well and pose no increase in infection rates or cross contamination.

#LEADING THE CHANGE
Not knowing who is behind the mask/hat can be intimidating and scary. Removing this barrier can turn the anonymity to 'familiar' which in itself creates a warmer, more friendly and approachable nature.

“Double thumbs up, comfortable and environmentally friendly and in scenarios where we may be working with different teams i.e., in resus, on arrests on the ward etc, it improves communication”.
Lindsay Quinn,
Fife Hospital
“The colourful hats brighten up the department. Surgeons and patients appreciate the fact that these include the medics’ names and abbreviated roles, for example ODP or ODSW.
Dr.Mruga Diwan,
Royal Liverpool
“The team huddle is all well and good in the morning, but I don’t remember everyone’s names and if we had named caps for everyone that would be great” “It’s a good idea and helps to identify who is who”.
Warwick Med are promoting the idea of writing your name and job title on your theatre cap to improve recognition and personalisation of care within the theatre setting.
