Infection control is a critical responsibility for care managers, ensuring the safety of service users, staff, and visitors. Effective infection prevention measures reduce the risk of Healthcare-Associated Infections (HCAIs), prevent outbreaks, and ensure compliance with Care Quality Commission (CQC) regulations. This course provides an in-depth understanding of infection control standards, legal responsibilities, and regulatory frameworks. Learners will explore risk management strategies, outbreak response protocols, staff training requirements, and leadership responsibilities in infection prevention and control (IPC). With increasing concerns over antimicrobial resistance (AMR), infection outbreaks, and regulatory enforcement, care managers must implement robust infection control systems, conduct audits, and lead continuous improvementsin hygiene compliance. By the end of this course, participants will be equipped to develop and enforce infection prevention policies, manage outbreaks effectively, and meet legal and CQC compliance requirements in health and social care settings. This course is ideal for care managers, compliance officers, and senior staff responsible for infection control, governance, and regulatory compliance.
