Infection Prevention and Control (IPC) Week 2026 – Past, Present, Prepared for the Future

Megan Reilly

IPC Week 2026 will be held from 18 to 24 October. This year’s theme Past, Present, Prepared for the future recognises the progress that has been and continues to be made in IPC, reinforces the importance of IPC practice everyday, and highlights the collective role in protecting consumers and healthcare workers into the future.

To help you prepare, the Australian Commission on Safety and Quality in Health Care will be releasing resources shortly. To find out more about the theme visit https://ow.ly/MkFP50ZO9ok
