<p>In the UK, healthcare-associated infections affect around 300,000 patients each year and lead to approximately 5,000 deaths. By taking this course, individuals can help reduce the spread of infection in healthcare settings, protect the health and safety of patients and colleagues, and improve the overall quality of care. </p> <p>Learning about infection prevention and control is also critical in preventing the spread of infectious diseases in the community, particularly during outbreaks or pandemics. By developing a solid understanding of infection control and prevention, individuals can make a positive impact on public health and help protect vulnerable populations.</p> <p><strong>Learning Outcomes:</strong></p> <ul> <li>Understand the principles of infection control</li><li>Understand the legal and ethical responsibilities associated with infection control</li><li>Identify the different modes of transmission of infection</li><li>Identify the appropriate use of personal protective equipment (PPE)</li><li>Develop an understanding of the importance of hand hygiene in infection control</li><li>Identify the role of environmental cleaning in infection prevention and control</li></ul><p>The Infection Prevention and Control Course is structured into six modules that cover a wide range of topics related to infection control and prevention. </p> <p>Module 01 provides an introduction to infection and infection control, including an overview of the different types of infections, how they are transmitted, and the importance of infection control. </p> <p>Module 02 covers legislation and policies related to infection control, including the legal and ethical responsibilities of healthcare workers. </p> <p>Module 03 focuses on infection risk and management, including risk assessment, surveillance, and outbreak management. </p> <p>Module 04 provides an in-depth look at personal protective equipment (PPE) and its practical uses, including selecting and using appropriate PPE. </p> <p>Module 05 provides hands-on training in the use of PPE in a practical setting, including donning and doffing of PPE. </p> <p>Finally, Module 06 focuses on understanding the person-to-person spread of disease, including the different types of transmission and the importance of early identification and isolation.</p> <p><strong>Certification</strong></p> <p>Upon completion of the course, learners can obtain a certificate as proof of their achievement. You can receive a <strong>£4.99 </strong>PDF Certificate sent via email, a <strong>£9.99 </strong>Printed Hardcopy Certificate for delivery in the UK, or a <strong>£19.99</strong> Printed Hardcopy Certificate for international delivery. Each option depends on individual preferences and locations.</p><h2>
