    Hi John

    There are also the Secretariat of the Pacific Community Infection Control
    guidelines, published by the Pacific Public Health Surveillance Network,
    http://www.spc.int/phs/PPHSN/Activities/PICNet/IC-Guidelines.htm which were
    updated in 2010. These are specifically for the Pacific and were based upon
    the Fiji Ministry of Health guidelines, by Ms Margaret Leong of the Fiji
    Ministry of Health.

    Perhaps ACIPC could contribute to the 2004 document and 2009 tool updates?

    Kind regards
    Peta-Anne
