Sustainability and IPC
Organised by the ISAC Infection Prevention & Control Working Group
In general, sustainability and environmental protection are global topics of upmost importance. After the recent COVID-19 pandemic, sustainability in regard to infection prevention and control measures within the healthcare setting finally got the needed attention. Unfortunately, efforts to protect our environment and those to protect our patients seem to clash at times, in part, due to the lack of data or knowledge. This session aims to elude this conflict and give an overview of what is presently known to achieve the best for both goals.
