NOTES

106 | 128

Infectious diseases continue to be a major cause of death on a global scale.

Health professionals and their patients are at risk of contracting these diseases.

Transmission of infections within health facilities is mainly caused by lack of respect for handwashing and universal precautions.

Inadequate waste management in care facilities can be the starting point of serious illnesses for health professionals, for staff in charge of waste disposal, for patients and for the wider community.

Infection control is EVERYONE’s responsibility.
