Free global panel discussion webinar: preventing infections to fight AMR: are we doing enough?
Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) remains a top global public health and development threat. During this seminar, organised by GAMA Healthcare and free to attend, the distinguished panel of experts will discuss how current healthcare cleaning guidelines remain similar to those from 50 years ago.
Each will give their view on why we need to review and update the guidelines to bring ‘forward thinking’ to prevent the transmission of key microbes.
Facilitated by Professor Brett Mitchell (AM) pictured, editor-in-chief of Infection, Disease & Health, professor of nursing at Avondale University:
The webinar will benefit from the expertise of:
• Dr Mark Garvey - consultant clinical scientist, director of infection prevention at University Hospitals Birmingham NHS Foundation Trust, and Director of the Hospital Infection Research Laboratory
• Dr Jon Otter - director of infection prevention & control, Guy's and St Thomas' NHS Foundation Trust, London
Is your facility facing difficulties preventing AMR with current IPC practices? Please submit your question in advance and the panel will address it during the discussion. Together, let's improve infection prevention compliance and build a stronger defence against AMR.
