Course Overview
Almost every serious incident involving health facility infection control programmes was preceded by a signal somebody noticed and nobody escalated. Where control programmes depends on the vigilance of one experienced person, it is not yet a system. Participants who influence this aspect of occupational health and safety without directly controlling it will find the content directly usable. Field experience suggests that the barrier to better health facility infection control programmes is rarely technical. Participants finish able to explain this area of occupational health and safety to a non-specialist audience without losing precision. The teaching approach is deliberately practical: participants build a safety procedure for control programmes as they go. It treats health facility infection control programmes as an operating discipline and equips participants to run it as one. Moving control programmes from written policy into daily practice is not achieved by a single decision. Participants leave with a first-ninety-days plan for the wider occupational health and safety agenda rather than a set of notes.
