Spire Harpenden Hospital awarded the CAP Gold Award for Housekeeping

We have a fantastic Housekeeping Team here at Harpenden, that work tirelessly to ensure our hospital cleanliness is of the highest standard.

Earlier this year we were visited by one of the independent CAP Awards experts who carried out a thorough inspection, assessing every aspect of our service delivery, verifying and measuring standards of performance.  It's a detailed process that examines operational practicalities, team consistency and individual capabilities.

We are delighted to have been awarded with a GOLD benchmark for our high standards. The Gold Award rewards the consistent delivery of a high standard of service with excellent supporting operational practices.

On receiving this prestigious award, Hospitality Services Manager, Tyrone Shiels commented: "It has been a great joint effort from all departments here at Spire Harpenden, and we couldn’t wait to proudly display our new shiny wall plaque for all to see. This program brings great reassurance for teams and staff and most importantly for the public ensuring that our cleaning practices are aligned with current health and safety practices, which is crucial in a Healthcare Environment.”
