Do you want to know more about how to risk assessment your environmental risk to patients?
Are you keen to understand the
evidence behind the role of the environment in
healthcare associated infection?
Then welcome to the Environment Network!
This is a network for people in
clinical/scientific roles within the NHS and other associated organisations who
are interested in the role of environmental infection prevention and control in
preventing infection.
The aim of the network is to support infection prevention and control professionals involved in commissioning, environmental audit, water, air and surface testing within their Trusts. By working together we can share best practice between Trusts; as well as circulating the latest evidence and discussing personal experiences.
The 2025 meeting will focus on bringing together members from industry, clinical, scientific, engineering and built environment backgrounds to discuss how best to investigate outbreaks and risks linked to water, air, and surfaces. What approaches we should be aware of and what kind of interventions may be open to us.
The morning will consist of lectures from experts and the afternoon will consist of case studies where participants can share learning.
