Bring Plague Tags to your organization. You pick a microbe, we send everything you need, and your team turns a keychain into a thirty-second conversation people remember.
Hand hygiene posters get walked past. E-learning modules get clicked through. The education is correct, and nobody remembers it.
Plague Tags flips infection education from pushed to pulled. At Sault Area Hospital, people come from all over the building to get one. When they take a tag, a staff member spends thirty seconds on what the microbe is, how it spreads, and what stops it.
Each microbe comes with its own card, keychain and display. Most organizations start with the one that matters most on their units this season.
Every fact on these profiles is reviewed by the infectious diseases team at Sault Area Hospital. Read the full page for each one in The Collection.
Choose the microbe that matters most to your units and set a real launch date. Run it as an event, not a handout.
Cards, keychains, displays and a coordinator guide arrive ready to use, in English and French.
A short huddle and a staff card give everyone the same thirty-second script.
Put the display up and hand out tags with the conversation. Start with patients on precautions, their families, and the staff caring for them.
