Course Description

In today’s healthcare environment, infection prevention and control (IPC) is a critical responsibility that safeguards patients, staff, and healthcare systems. This course, Ultimate Guide for Infection Prevention and Control in Healthcare Settings, is designed for healthcare professionals and administrators seeking to implement effective IPC protocols and minimize healthcare-associated infections (HAIs).

Throughout this course, you will learn the fundamentals of infection control and how to apply best practices in real healthcare settings—whether in hospitals, clinics, nursing homes, or outpatient facilities. The course is structured into five essential modules:

Introduction to Infection Prevention and Control (IPC)

Modes of Transmission and Risk Assessment

Standard and Transmission-Based Precautions

Environmental Cleaning, PPE Use, and Hand Hygiene

Conclusion and Compliance Monitoring

We begin by introducing IPC concepts and conclude with a focus on sustaining long-term compliance and fostering a culture of safety. Your instructor will walk you through each step using real-world examples, current WHO/CDC guidelines, and scenario-based learning. After completing the course, you’ll be equipped with practical tools to implement or enhance infection control policies in your facility.
