Question 1 of 8
Single answer
Why is the building itself described as a frontline defence against healthcare-associated infection (HAI)?
A
Because modern building materials are naturally sterile and kill pathogens on contact
B
Because design decisions - separation of flows, sink placement, isolation rooms, cleanable surfaces - physically break links in the chain of infection and are mostly impossible to retrofit
C
Because the building's air conditioning removes the need for staff to wash their hands
D
Because infection control is entirely a matter of protocols and has nothing to do with the building
