Did you know?
There were around 700,000 deaths from antibiotic-resistant infections in 2019, and another 200,000 people died in the UK in 2019 from the Norovirus. The primary problem is that people are overprescribing antibiotics and not following proper hygiene practices.
Prevention and control of infection is a key part of healthcare in the UK. Reducing the risk of infections in healthcare settings and in the community is important. This can be done through various measures, such as good hand hygiene, appropriate use of personal protective equipment, effective cleaning and decent contamination of equipment, and effective waste management.
The role of infection within a health or social care setting poses a significant risk to service users, patients, carers, and staff. Without effective infection prevention and control approaches, the infection can cause disease and harm and impair the quality of life and healthcare experiences.
In addition, it is important to ensure that healthcare workers know the risks associated with infections and how to reduce them. Finally, it is essential to have effective systems in place to monitor and manage infection control and to ensure that any outbreaks are identified and addressed quickly.
