Keeping Everyone Safe: Infection prevention during joint visits

We look at several aspects of infection prevention and control that are crucial to patient / client safety.  Evonne will explain  how micro-organisms behave, their capability of surviving in the environment and the modes of transmission.  We then assess the risks in what we do, and what we need to do in order to prevent the risk of new infections spreading to both the patient / client and ourselves.
