This work aims to develop knowledge and skills in the control of infection in a variety of settings, both clinical and social. It begins by setting out the scientific knowledge base, and discusses the implications of the current legislative and national guidance for practice. Later chapters demonstrate, with the aid of charts and diagrams, how the principles of infection control are applied to practice. The book aims to be multi-disciplinary and to fascilitate the health promotion role of the career and the independence of the patient/client. It also aims to promote reflective practice through audit.
