Infection Control
Infection prevention and control measures aim to
ensure the protection of those who might be
vulnerable to acquiring an infection.
But why is this important? Well every year at least
300,000 people develop a health care associated
Infection. This has a huge impact on the patient,
the staff and the institution it occurs in. Whereas if
there is good infection prevention and control,
patients will have better health and more independence. This course
will start by defining infection prevention and control and explaining the
impact of good and bad infection control. It then goes into detail about,
the legislation that applies to infection control, the different types of
microorganisms, how bacteria are transmitted, the chain of infection,
and much more.
