Publication Date: June 2011
A Community Infection Control and Prevention Manual (June 2011) has been written by Aileen O’ Brien and Helen Murphy in the Department of Public Health, HSE East and has been ratified by the North Dublin SARI Infection Control Committee. This document is for HSE health care workers (HCWs) in counties Dublin, Kildare and Wicklow and outlines recommendations for the prevention and control of infection in community care settings, primary care and in the client’s home. These are guidelines and should not supersede existing local policies and procedures. While the manual has been developed for HSE community facilities (HSE) it may be a useful resource for HCWs in the private and voluntary sector.
