Infection Control
|
|
The objective of the Infection Control Department is to reduce preventable infection
to the lowest possible level at acceptable cost by mainly performing the following:
- Advice on isolation procedures and infection control measures
- Controlling outbreaks by rectification of technical lapses (if any)
- Infection control audit including inspection of waste disposal, laundry and kitchen
- Investigation of outbreaks
- Monitoring of hospital-associated infections
- Monitoring of staff health to prevent spread of infection
- Training of staff in prevention and control of HAI
With cooperation between all those involved, the chain of infection can be broken
and work towards a healthy environment would be underway. The Infection Control
Program at RHUH strives to minimize the risk, prevent and control the transmission
of patients/ hospital/ facility/ community-associated infections.
