WISH 2022 - Antimicrobial resistance, and workforce wellbeing
Last month, saw the WISH 2022 - the World Innovation Summit for Health, where experts from around the world came and presented their ideas. In this podcast we'll hear from Dame Sally Davies, the UK ’s Special Envoy on Antimicrobial Resistance - she explains how covid, and treatment uncertainty, put paid to conservative prescribing; and what innovations in microbial treatment are on the horizon. Following that, James Campbell, director of the health workforce department at the WHO, who joins us to talk about new data they have on the wellbeing, and why the international market for healthcare staff is no longer the simpl...

Methods to improve healthcare worker hand hygiene to decrease infection in patient care
Healthcare-associated infection is a major problem for health systems, causing concern, unnecessary illness and death. It is receiving further priority from policy-makers because it contributes to the global threat of antimicrobial resistance. Hand hygiene is regarded as an effective preventative measure and the September 2017 update of a Cochrane Review provides evidence on the effects of various interventions. Lead author, Dinah Gould from the School of Healthcare Sciences at Cardiff University in Wales brings us up to date in this podcast. (Source: Podcasts from The Cochrane Library)
