Gamified Lean Training Modules for Reducing Cross-Contamination in Geriatric Rehabilitation Centers
Keywords:
Rehabilitation, Cross contamination, Aged AdultAbstract
The complex care needs paired with the susceptibility of residents make geriatric rehabilitation centers particularly prone to cross-contamination and infection outbreaks. Using Lean principles together with gamification techniques creates an effective method for educating staff about infection control measures. The study investigates the development and enactment of gamified Lean training methods as a strategy to lessen cross-contamination cases within geriatric rehabilitation facilities with special attention to high-risk zones like hydrotherapy pools and shared spaces. The study determines module effectiveness by measuring reductions in infection outbreaks and waste. Research results show that gamified Lean training programs increase staff involvement while improving compliance with infection control measures which leads to decreased cross-contamination risks in healthcare facilities.
