A survey, conducted by the Patients ’ Association, an independent charity devoted to defending the interests of patients, has revealed "unease and concern among health professionals" that infection control practices in the United Kingdom's National Health Service are "endangering patients ’ lives". The survey published today, revealed that NHS infection control staff felt that infection control was inadequately financed, that training was inadequate and that much time has to be spent reassuring patients. The Telegraph reports that experts consider that C. difficile is an even greater threat to patient ’ s health than MRSA.
