Dear Keryn
always a difficult one to get these type of info as there are so many
variables that enter into an equation such as this and your situation
sounds just soanyhow one article you may find of interest as a starting point is in
the Journal of Hospital infection.ref
2007 PJ Van Den Broek et al Journal of Hospital Infection Vol 65 No 2
pg 108 ‘How many Infection Control Staff do we need in Hospitals.’good luck – happy to hear feedback from anyone else with any other
ideas as well if they have anything published a little more recentlycheers

Good Morning all,Can anyone please advise where I might locate documented guidelines on
the recommended number of Infection Control Personnel that should be
assigned to a facility.We have been operating on 0.5 FTE for some years with an 0.5 FTE
Occupational Health Nurse attached. The client group is around 8500
active clients across metropolitian and rural South Australia and 2470
staff. Around 1800 of the staff are in Nursing/carer positions or
Allied Health providing direct care both in facilties, community or
individual homes.Regards,
