Abstract
Key messages 1. Air quality monitoring at healthcare sites can help understand exposure levels, identify local pollution sources, and inform targeted actions to reduce staff and patient exposure to poor air quality. 2. Air pollutant levels may be measured using diffusion tubes (nitrogen dioxide) and air quality sensors (particulate matter). 3. Appropriate planning and technical support/expert advice for healthcare site monitoring can help ensure that the air quality data generated are useful and usable.
