Infection course for Nurses
This session aims to equip practitioners with information so that they can advise on infection-related public health issues and vaccination-related concerns in primary schools.
Learning objectives
By the end of this session you will be able to:
- Summarise relevant issues around hygiene in the primary school setting

- Describe the management of cases/outbreaks of meningitis, diarrhoea and vomiting, conjunctivitis, impetigo and other diseases
