Teleclass | (FREE WHO Teleclass - Europe) GLOBAL INFECTION PREVENTION AND CONTROL PRIORITIES 2018-2022: A CALL FOR ACTION |
Outline: | Objectives: It is now urgent to consider infection prevention and control (IPC) capacity building and actual implementation as global health priorities. This would create a unique opportunity to make IPC a strong contributor to the achievement of the health-related UNs Sustainable Development Goals, including quality universal health coverage. It would also help effective implementation of other major global health priorities, including the International Health Regulations, antimicrobial resistance action plans, patient and health worker safety, and integrated people-centered care. Together with the recent WHO guidelines on core components of IPC programs, the new priorities will be a source of direction and focus for decision-makers and influencers at national and international healthcare levels. |
