IPC Week is celebrated each October and aims to shine a light on infection prevention and control, and the crucial role IPC professionals play in keeping the public safe and healthy.
This year’s theme is ‘Moving the Needle on Infection Prevention,’ and throughout IPC Week the Australasian College of Infection Prevention and Control (ACIPC) will be focussing on professional development, healthcare worker safety, patient safety, public health preparedness, and looking at IPC in all settings.
ACIPC has some great resources to help you and your team celebrate IPC Week, including:
- IPC Week posters (A3 and A4 sizes) for you to print out and display
- A fun IPC themed word find to challenge your IPC knowledge
- Email signature banners to download and use
- A ‘Wordle a Day’ with an IPC theme
