HABC INFECTION CONTROL (LEVEL 2)

Overview

Lack of infection control causes illness and even death for many people every year. As such,
it is crucial that all organisations within the healthcare industry provide their staff with
training to prevent such infection from occurring or spreading. Our HABC accredited training
assists delegates in fulfilling this legal obligation whilst following Standard Infection Control
Procedures (SICPs) when working and cleaning.

● Standard Infection Control Procedures (SICPs).
● Causes of infections and how to prevent them.
