OVERVIEW OF INFECTION CONTROL
1 in 3 deaths worldwide are due to an infectious disease. The COVID-19 pandemic highlighted the need for infection control measures, which are designed to prevent the spread of illness and disease. These precautions include basic handwashing and hygiene along with the use of personal protective equipment (PPE) and sanitizing the care environment. In any healthcare setting and even in a senior’s home, these infection control measures can keep serious illness from spreading to help protect seniors and their loved ones.
