Infection control audits

Infection control audits are systematic checks carried out in healthcare settings to ensure procedures and practices effectively prevent the spread of infections. They involve reviewing cleanliness, proper use of protective equipment, hand hygiene, and sterilization processes. The goal is to identify areas for improvement, ensure compliance with safety standards, and protect both patients and staff. These audits help maintain a safe environment, reduce infection risks, and uphold high quality of care through ongoing monitoring and accountability.
