The workshop was conducted on 02.02.2016. Infection prevention and control is required to prevent the transmission of communicable diseases in all health care setups. Students were given adequate knowledge of the hospital acquired infection called nosocomial infection.
Infection prevention and control demands a basic understanding of the epidemiology of diseases; risk factors that increase patient susceptibility to infection; and the practices, procedures and treatments that may result in infections.
