[Sue.Greig@HEALTH.GOV.AU Subject: Re: On line Infection Control Orientation [SEC=UNCLASSIFIED] In-Reply-To:]

Hi Maree,

We will have an on-line Orientation
package ready for release soon (just how soon is in the lap of the gods
due to hosting issues). The package will cover both clinical and non-clinical
HCWs for IP&C. This may save you from doing the work for your facility.
I agree with you that new staff need to know the face of services such
as IP&C and online resources will never replace the human factor completely
but they do have a place.

So watch this space. In addition, you
could also utilise the online IP&C modules that are currently available
on our website and the Hand Hygiene Australia education resources as part
of your on-going professional development program.

Regards,

Sue

To AICALIST@AICALIST.ORG.AU cc Subject On line Infection Control Orientation  [SEC=No Protective Marking]

My organisation is moving to On-line
orientation for all new staff.  This will include Infection Control
Orientation.  One part of me is glad and the other part thinks staff
should at least be able to put a face to Infection Control.  

My colleague and I will be required
to develop an On-line Infection Control orientation program to cover the
whole network that includes a general hospital, womens health, community
care and aged care. (One size fits all).

I would appreciate some comment
or tips on this subject.
