Statutory & Mandatory Training: Infection Prevention and Control Level 1

Infection poses a threat to everyone and can lead to severe illnesses, worsening of underlying conditions, or even fatalities. As part of your role, you need to understand the routes by which an infection can get into the body and how poor health or hygiene might pose a risk to yourself and others.

This module looks at the importance of preventing and controlling the spread of infection, and best practice in the healthcare setting.

With healthcare staff often expected to complete training on an annual basis there will be topics you will be more familiar with than others. Our self assessment tool, which is at the start of each course, will allow you to test your knowledge to see if you would like to complete the training or progress straight to the end of course test.

At the end of this infection prevention and control level 1 courses, you will need to complete a test that consists of multiple choice questions. Learners are required to achieve an 80% pass mark, and – if necessary – may attempt the test six times at no extra cost. If learners do not achieve the pass mark, further attempts may be given by contacting our support team.

The level 1 infection prevention and control level 1 is fully interactive and is packed with various multimedia forms including video, animation and custom graphics to give you the best learning experience.

Each element of the training is WCAG 2.2 accessible and includes scenarios, contextualised activities, reflective activities, knowledge checks, bite sized lessons and so much more.
