Abstract: Healthcare facilities include hospitals, healthcare centers, medical nursing homes, and medical laboratories etc, where people receive medical services and treatment. A variety of healthcare-associated infections (HAIs) like bloodstream infections, urinary tract infections, pneumonia, surgical site infections, gastrointestinal infections etc, are likely found to occur in healthcare facilities. Various modes of transmission such as contact transmission, droplet transmission, airborne and vector borne transmissions are the major routes for these HAIs. All of them are showing their impact leading to increased mortality and morbidity rate and many incidents have occurred in the past because of them. In order to control these HAIs an “Infection Prevention & Control Program” (IPCP) must be adequately adopted by healthcare facilities. As a part of this program a special committee named “Hospital Infection Control Committee” (HICC) must be established within the facilities by allocating required members to look after various aspects. All necessary resources must be arranged for its effective functioning. Infection Prevention & Control (IPC) practices to be followed in special units like- Surgical units, Out-patient department, Emergency care unit, Dialysis unit, Maternal & Neonatal units, Clinical laboratories are outlined and explained in this article. Follow these IPC practices and precautions in all special units with proper surveillance.
Keywords: Infection prevention and control (IPC), Healthcare facilities (HCFs), Healthcare Associated Infections (HAIs), Surveillance, Surgical site infections (SSIs)
