Now, more than ever, following expert advice and educating ourselves and our workforce against viruses such as Covid-19 is our best defence. It is also the best tactic we have to move forward and slowly ensure that getting back into work safely is possible. Our clients’ and our employees’ safety and well-being are of the utmost importance and we should all aim to let everyone know that we are taking every step to educate ourselves to ensure our services will keep running.

What does the course cover?

• Health and hygiene
• Hand hygiene
• PPE
• Safe handling of waste
• Environmental contamination
• Legislation
• Employers’ and employees’ responsibilities

• COVID-19
• Pathogenic microorganisms
• Chain of infection
• Consequences of infection

• Control measures

Infection prevention and Control is a practical solution, based on a scientific approach, to prevent the harm caused by infection to both patients and health workers. Infections and infectious diseases are a major cause of illness and death. Infectious diseases can spread. As with all illnesses, prevention is better than cure.

I don’t work for McKenzie Arnold. Can I still take the course?

Yes, of course! This course is aimed at any employee or manager working within an environment where there is risk of infection. The course may be particularly useful for healthcare professionals and adult care workers, as well as apprentices. The course can be used as a stand-alone module or as part of an induction programme.

How much does the course cost?

The course costs £15.00 per person.
