The Infection Prevention Bundle equips care teams with the core skills to prevent, control and respond to infectious risks in health and social care settings. This bundle combines infection prevention and control theory, practical hand hygiene, and COSHH awareness so staff can protect service users, colleagues and the wider organisation.

Why this bundle?

Infection prevention reduces risk, safeguards vulnerable people and helps maintain compliance with health and safety standards. The Infection Prevention Bundle gives your workforce a compact, practical programme that covers both everyday practice (hand hygiene) and regulatory responsibilities (COSHH and infection control).
