Construction Series – Part 1: Why Infection Prevention and Control Must Start at Design
Healthcare construction and renovation projects create infection risks long before patients ever enter the space. Too often, infection prevention and control staff are brought in late — after key decisions have already been made — and it is very difficult to make any changes.
In Part 1 of this 3-part series, this episode focuses on the foundational concepts behind infection prevention and healthcare construction, including:
Why early IPAC involvement matters
How design decisions influence infection risk
The consequences of treating infection prevention and control as an afterthought
This episode sets the stage for Part 2 (Design & Planning) and Part 3 (Construction, Commissioning & Occupancy).
