The Centre conducted several multidisciplinary in-situ simulations which
identified potential latent threats and deficiencies in infection
containment. These were gaps in communication and co-ordination between
operating theatre, obstetrics and neonatal teams resulting in delayed
transfers. A particular vulnerability was the consistent breaches
observed in the donning and doffing of personal protective equipment.
This led to a need for additional personnel to guide and police strict
adherence among healthcare workers.
