Infection Prevention and Control Programme Management

Infection prevention succeeds or fails on management systems: who audits hand hygiene compliance, who signs off the cleaning contract, how healthcare risk waste leaves the site, and whether surveillance data reaches the people who can act on it. The programme side of infection control is the focus.
