Safe Food - Especially Vulnerable Groups in Community Institutions

The Commission for Hospital Hygiene and Infection Prevention at the Robert Koch Institute (KRINKO) has published requirements for hygiene in the medical care of immunosuppressed patients. Supplementary to these and the existing guidelines and DIN standards, the Federal Institute for Risk Assessment (BfR) has prepared these recommendations in cooperation with the BfR Commission for Hygiene. They are aimed primarily at the management of childcare centres, old people’s homes and hospital kitchens, as well as hygiene specialists and the administrative directors and boards of trustees of curative and care institutions. These recommendations are intended to help the responsible persons in facilities which regularly cater for especially vulnerable sections of the population in the implementation of the existing legal provisions.DE; de; efsa-focal-point@bfr.bund.d
