• And more.

In addition, ES News will provide readers with access to HFM's original surveys, multimedia reports, columns and commentaries about the keys to providing patients, visitors and staff with a clean and safe environment. The newsletter will also feature Q&A interviews with leading experts in areas ranging from infection prevention to environmental services to patient satisfaction.

"Health Facilities Management readers have a deep commitment to maintaining a safe environment for patients, visitors and staff. ES News readers will have greater access to our content in a mobile environment," says Bob Kehoe, associate publisher.

Initially, ES News will publish six times per year, aimed at keeping ES directors, infection control specialists, facilities managers and other primary stakeholders in environmental safety up-to-date on the latest trends in maintaining a clean and safe environment.
