Infection Prevention and Control: Protecting yourself and the people you care for, Friday 19 February, 2-3pm

About this event

We know that great progress is being made vaccinating vulnerable people and care staff against COVID 19, but the risk of infection remains and the new variant of COVID potentially increases the risk as infection is spread more easily. The Department of Health and Social Care and the Better Care Fund team are hosting three webinars focusing on Infection Prevention and Control during the week beginning 15th February and invite you to join us to ask questions and remind yourselves of the important things to do to keep yourself and the people you care for safe.

Participants will:

  • Learn about risk factors and best practice for Infection Prevention and Control
  • Share practice, learning and ideas
  • Be able to ask questions and hear from experts, including care home providers

The webinars are open to all, but they are aimed primarily at care staff involved in infection prevention and control in care homes and in the community.

You will hear from Deborah Sturdy, Chief Nurse in the Department of Health and Social Care, Rian Gleave, Regional Assurance Lead for Yorkshire & Humber (DHSC), and Lizzie Hancock, Care Manager, Fulford Nursing Homes

As well as the speakers, a panel of experts put together to answer your questions include Liz Jones, Policy Director at the National Care Forum, Emma Self, NHSE lead for Enhanced Health in Care Homes and a representative from Public Health England.

A short animation developed by Roots and Wings will also be shown.
