HOW CLEAN IS YOUR HOSPITAL?

Britain's favourite dustbusters Kim Woodburn and Aggie MacKenzie are branching out. The stars of "How Clean is Your House?" are to visit Ealing Hospital in West London, which was accused last year of poor hygiene standards. The formidable duo are going in to advise them on tips to improve cleanliness and prevent the outbreak of the deadly superbug MRSA. Judging by their success with some of the householders they visited, they should do very well.

If this visit proves successful, Kim and Aggie may pay a similar visit to other hospitals in the country.

It remains to be seen if Kim and Aggie can do for the nation’s hospitals what top British chef Jamie Oliver did for school dinners. Jamie Oliver successfully campaigned to get schools to serve children a healthy diet and also paid Mr Blair a visit to get him to increase funding for school dinners. Judging by the state of some of the hospitals in this country, I think Kim and Aggie will have their work cut out!
