As STERIS EMEA Health Months continue, in the UK, we begin focusing on men’s health issues, suicide prevention; stress management; addiction; and lifestyle diseases. These are issues that affect both sexes but data shows that men are predominantly susceptible. We are opening up conversations and breaking down stigmas to ensure our Associates feel supported.

Every year, the STERIS UK training team prioritises teaching our UK Apprentices CPR (cardiopulmonary resuscitation) in recognition of Restart a Heart Day (October 16th).   Led by Nate Parker-Hughes from STERIS HR Shared Services - who is also a St John Ambulance Emergency First Aid Responder and Trainer - we hosted a 30-minute webinar emphasising the importance of CPR and using AEDs (Automated External Defibrillator) to save lives.   Two years ago, STERIS Instrument Processing’s Health and Safety team spearheaded an initiative to install AEDs in every STERIS Instrument Processing facility. These life-saving devices are also registered on The Circuit, the National Defibrillator Network, which connects NHS ambulance services to defibrillators across the UK. This ensures that, in the critical moments following a cardiac arrest, AEDs can be located and accessed quickly to increase the chances of survival.   When someone experiences cardiac arrest, every second counts. For every minute that passes without CPR and defibrillation, their chance of survival drops. Yet, many defibrillators go unused because emergency responders aren’t aware of their locations. The Circuit solves this problem by providing up-to-date information to help save lives.   Although CPR training is no longer a mandatory part of the healthcare learning standard for Apprentices, STERIS UK continues to offer this life-saving education, believing that one day it could make the difference between life and death.   Here’s a photo of the STERIS Chessington IP team proudly participating in the training, along with their reward stickers and training partners.   Do you have an AED, and is it registered on the National Defibrillator Network? If not, you can register it today for free at www.thecircuit.uk

Each October, Global Diversity Awareness Month focuses on recognizing and celebrating the uniqueness that makes up each of us, and the success that comes from bringing our Associates’ individuality together as one STERIS. We recognize the importance of diversity and aim to support each of our 17,000+ Associates as individuals, appreciating what everyone brings to the table. We strive to foster an environment where our Associates feel empowered to bring their perspectives to every interaction, every day. This year for Global Diversity Awareness Month, we are focusing on highlighting those unique qualities and traits our Associates bring through our theme, “Diversity = Inclusion = Everyone.” Each of our Associates bring something personal to STERIS, and we asked them to share with us what that ‘something’ is. Watch below to see our Diversity, Equity & Inclusion (DE&I) commitment come to life through their responses. Click to read our DE&I Commitment - https://lnkd.in/gUe8zyvM
