Managing the risks relating to infections in both health & social care is a high priority for all health & social care providers. Compliance with the Health & Social Care Act 2008 (Regulated Activities) Regulations 2014 and the Code of Practice 2022 requires IPC training. It is clear that IPC training and IPC updates are key elements to reducing any IPC risks, both to the patients and staff.

Here, you will find the essential IPC training courses independent hospital and clinics should consider for their staff, from an RCN-accredited two day IPC link practitioner course, to the mandatory training which meets the requirements of level 1 & 2 of the core skills framework for health and care staff. Also available is dedicated cleaners’ training for cleaners and supervisors in a healthcare setting.  Our wide range of training further includes shorter, more focused training for staff who need an update on a specific subject rather than a whole IPC update – see them listed below. All courses are delivered by our infection control specialist nurse team, and are either delivered live via Zoom, or onsite where it is safe to do so. We also undertake dedicated client-specific training for all independent hospitals, diagnostics and clinics clients where you may prefer training to be dedicated to your staff. Alternatively, you can join and buy a place on an open course of your choosing direct from our website; this also provides an opportunity to also meet others from different clinics on the day.

As all of our packages are only available for live Zoom sessions or face to face (we do not have any e-learning packages), we provide an optimal learning experience, allowing for Q&A sessions that can be answered live. We also adapt our courses immediately any updates become known; we work very dynamically and IPS makes sure all our delegates have a solid learning experience at the end of each course.  All our courses come with a Certificate of Attendance and CPD hours where applicable.
