||//\\|| ||//\\|| ||//\\|| ||//\\|| ||//\\|| ||//\\|| ||//\\|| ||//\\|| ||//\\|| ||//\\|| ||//\\|| ||//\\|| ||//\\|| ||//\\|| ||//\\|| ||//\\||
different environments for each setting. ||//\\|| ||//\\|| ||//\\|| ||//\\||
Healthcare environments - cross contamination, stress, hazardous chemicals. E.g. hospital, GP ||//\\|| ||//\\|| ||//\\|| ||//\\|| ||//\\|| ||//\\|| ||//\\|| ||//\\|| ||//\\|| ||//\\||
surgery, dental practice.
||//\\|| ||//\\|| ||//\\||
social care environments - additional impairments = more susceptible, weaker immune

system = more vulnerable to illness/infections. E.g. residential care home, community centre,

individuals own home.
