Almost a quarter of NHS Trusts have admitted they are not meeting government hygiene standards, it has been reported.
From next year, NHS Trusts which fail to comply with the government’s Hygiene Code could face closure, according to Legal & Medical magazine.
Commenting on BBC Radio 4’s Today programme, the chief executive of the Healthcare Commission Anna Walker said: "We make no apologies for the tougher standards but we have to acknowledge that the NHS are working against them."
Ms Walker added: "We are going to visit every hospital in the country to ensure that they have a plan in place to meet these standards."
Around £50 million has been spent conducting a nationwide deep clean throughout UK hospitals. The programme was carried out in 93 per cent of trusts.
The Cleaning and Support Services Association recently said one of the reasons that seven per cent of hospitals failed to carry out the deep clean was the pace at which it was carried out, reports the BBC.
