Overview
Why study infection prevention and control?
The Covid-19 pandemic left us all acutely aware of how easily infection can silently spread, putting the most vulnerable amongst us at risk. Some people are more at risk of contracting infection than others, due to the nature of their jobs; for instance, if you work in a hospital, school or care setting. If this applies to you, then gaining a solid understanding of how infection is controlled is essential. And, because this course is a nationally recognised RQF, it will make a great addition to your CV!
Infection Prevention & Control Level 3 – what you’ll learn
You’ll learn how the spread of infection can be controlled through the maintenance of personal hygiene, understand the importance of effective hand washing, and wearing personal protective equipment (PPE). You delve into the principles of decontamination, cleaning, and waste management, as well as learning the standardised procedures used within healthcare settings. Plus, you’ll be able to study infection control in your own time, and at a pace that suits you – ideal if you’ve work or family commitments.
