Nitty gritty of aged care IPC surveillance/audit 

This session explored the process of surveillance/audit in aged care – what auditing should be considered, what tools can be used, how results are turned into action plans, and how action plans are written. We looked at audit and action plan templates.  Our guest speaker was Kelly Barton, an Infection Control Consultant with 13 years’ experience in the role at Alpine Health in Northeast Victoria. Kelly recently completed her Masters in Infection Control at Griffith University in 2022. She is passionate about One Health, Aged Care and AMS. She recently went to Cambodia with the charity Supporting Silk Sisters to help a rural referral hospital with their first ever accreditation preparations.
