Infection prevention and control (IPC) is a complex, multi-faceted topic encompassing the safe care and treatment of patients, premises, and equipment. As well as understanding of sustainability and environmental considerations, within a robust governance process.
BrisDoc is committed to ensuring the highest possible standard of safe and effective IPC for all patients, carers, and co-owners. Effective IPC must be part of BrisDoc’s everyday practice and be consistently applied by everyone in the organisation as part of our Brisdoc values.
Important guidance documents referred to and followed within this Policy:
This policy is not exhaustive in defining IPC and situations may arise not outlined within this policy, Co-owners should use a common-sense approach in adhering to the principles underpinning this policy and seek help when required.
