Infection Prevention and Control
Each year, an excess of £1 billion is spent by NHS on healthcare-associated infection. This is an infection that was neither present nor incubating at the time of contact with the healthcare facility. All staff have a duty to protect patients from harm and ensure colleagues, patients and visitors take infection prevention seriously. It is necessary to apply standard precautions of infection at all times. Additional precautions may be required in certain circumstance, and these will be advised by a nurse in charge or a member of the infection control team. For instance, certain conditions may require a face mask to be worn.
