Toteutustapa

Infection prevention and control (IPC) is a practical, evidence-based approach preventing patients and health workers from being harmed by avoidable infections. Globally effective IPC requires constant action at all levels of health systems, including policymakers, facility managers, health workers and those who access health services. IPC is unique in the field of patient safety and quality of care, as it is universally relevant to every health worker and patient, at every health care interaction. Without effective IPC it is impossible to achieve quality health care delivery and improve the status of global health.

· to analyze and implement concepts, principles, and policies of global infection prevention and control
· to apply evidence-based infection prevention and control models in composing, and evaluating IPC practices in diverse settings
