Co-Design Communities of Practice for IPC Leads
Be part of shaping a supportive learning community tailored to your needs!
What is this about?
As an IPC Lead in residential aged care, you play a vital role in infection prevention and control. This project aims to develop Communities of Practice specifically for IPC Leads like yourself across Australia.
A Community of Practice brings together people with shared roles and interests to learn collaboratively, share knowledge, and support each other
How can I get involved?
This new research project, from Dr Jo Tropea at the University of Melbourne, invites IPC Leads, residential aged care managers, quality and executives to co-design these Communities of Practice through workshops. Your input will help shape:
1.Practical aspects – When/how to meet, sharing information etc.
2.Learning needs – Topics, training, and support for your role
Have your say by attending one of our 60-minute online co-design workshop.
Workshops will be held on the following dates:
Friday 17 October 2025 10am-11am AEDT (IPC Leads)
