title: Hospital hygiene in Great Britain.
abstract: ICT's in the UK are experienced, well trained and are enthusiastic. However, their efforts are frustrated through lack of resources. Infection Control is now a quality issue and defined separate budgets are being established and hospital contracts now contain elements of infection control as part of the service. Infection control is coming of age in the UK after 25 years of earnest effort.
