Course Overview
Cost pressure and quality expectations on healthcare-associated infection prevention are rising at the same time. In healthcare, a weakness in this aspect of health and pharmaceutical services is eventually paid for by a patient. Participants take away a working set of documents supporting the wider health and pharmaceutical services agenda, ready to be adapted internally. Where healthcare-associated infection prevention is measured, it improves; where it is only discussed, it drifts. The method assumes participants will be challenged on their handling of this area of health and pharmaceutical services and prepares them for it. The programme is built to be used, and every section of the health and pharmaceutical services discipline it covers ends in something applicable. It is appropriate for those preparing to take on wider responsibility for healthcare-associated infection prevention. Plans for this area of health and pharmaceutical services often fail at the handover point between functions. Participants leave with a first-ninety-days plan for this part of health and pharmaceutical services rather than a set of notes.
