Pseudomonas Control

 

What is ‘Pseudomonas’? 

Pseudomonas aeruginosa is a bacterium often found in soil and groundwater. This pathogen is opportunistic, rarely targeting healthy people. Instead, it focuses on people who are already unwell or compromised. Whilst it is important to protect all water systems from this pathogen, it is therefore especially important for hospitals, care homes and other health care facilities
 
Failure to protect against P. aeruginosa correctly has led to multiple outbreaks of this pathogen from hospitals, which poses a threat not only to patients and staff, but also the wider area. Thankfully, here at 4i Water Services, we can support you in assessing your water systems for Pseudomonas risk, as well as implementing a range of safety solutions to both prevent and control infection risk. 

 

Our services 

At 4i Water Services, we can conduct a risk assessment that will tell you whether your water system contains the risk of Pseudomonas aeruginosa. Not only will this assess the likelihood of an infection, but using UKAS-accredited water sampling, we can also tell you whether the bacterium currently seems present. These assessments are particularly important if you run a health care facility, but are also recommended if you support the public in other ways.  
 
As well as testing and risk assessment, we provide responsive and preventative services such as cleaning and disinfection, filter installation and other control measures. These control services can reduce risk and keep vulnerable people safe when using your water.
