In July 2006 PSCA International connected with the current agenda concerning the reduction of HCAI across all NHS bodies. We invited leading figures from across the DH, Healthcare Commission, Hospital Infection Society and others to use the conference as a platform to disseminate current infection prevention and control policy and practice.
Having successfully achieved this, Public Service Events will host another national event on 2nd May 2007 for all medical and clinical directors, directors of infection prevention and control, clinical microbiologists and senior infection control personnel across all NHS bodies.
The conference plenary sessions will include key figures across the DH, HPA and Healthcare Commission providing an in-depth analysis on the content of the code of practice, the practices required to meet its requirements and the necessary cultural and behavioural changes trusts need to meet their challenge.
In particular, the event will focus on the three significant themes within the code.
