ACIPC Supports International Infection Control Week 14 – 20th October

[Claire Boardman]

For those who were not at the ACIPC Conference in Sydney last week you may not be aware that there was a launch of International Infection Control Week 14 – 20th October. This year there is a specific spotlight on promoting antibiotic awareness.
The College has partnered with APIC as a Supporting Partner for International Infection Prevention Week (IIPW) 2012 and provides a focal point for infection professionals, consumers, organisations, and industry partners to shine a light on infection prevention and its power to save lives. Please use any of this information you might find helpful in promoting IIPW. To access these links go to: http://www.iipw.site.apic.org/

Antibiotic Awareness
During IIPW the College is promoting the importance and understanding of Antibiotic Stewardship and through various conference presentations at ACIPC2012. A number of resources are now available on the ACIPC website to promote awareness of how important it is to protect one of our most precious resources in healthcare.
