Course description

This rise and the associated media attention to hospital infections and those in a care setting has resulted in the Government setting national targets for reducing the number of deaths arising from infections. To achieve these targets it is now vitally important for all staff working in NHS Hospital Trusts, Primary Care Trusts, nursing and social care to be trained to understand these infections, what they are, how they can infect patients. In addition, understand the measures that can be used to control cross infection.

This Understanding MRSA Level 2 course has been developed as aresult of the above.

This course is organised into three important modules. The first two modules enable the learner to gain an understanding of the different "agents" that can cause infection and how they grow and mutate. Also how infection is spread and what measures can be taken to prevent fgrowth and mutation. The third module examins MRSA in more depth and how it has become a "super bug" resistant to todays antibiotics. In this module learners also cover their role and legal obligations in reducing its spread.

You dont need any previous qualifications to take this course. It is designed to encourage your own personal development in an area important to you. On completion of the pre-set workbook activities, which include structured questions and work-based assignments learners receive a certificate from ABC Awards, a nationally recognised awarding body.

NB. Please note that you are required to be employed within a work environment in order to complete this programme.
