Infection prevention and control (IPC) is the mainstay of the healthcare system, especially in the contemporary era of infectious diseases, which concerns both patients and healthcare workers. The routine training of healthcare staff regarding IPC practices has been quite challenging in public sector hospitals of developing countries for quite a few reasons, which became even more difficult in the days of COVID-19 when it was not suitable to gather healthcare workers for training purposes. At that time, it was realized that there must be some way to ensure the access and all-time availability of basic IPC guidelines to all the HCWs, which they may reach out to as per their point of care needs.
This mobile application is user-friendly, and an attempt to provide access to fundamental IPC principles in a precise way.
We intend to update this mobile App from time to time, with evolving infectious diseases and IPC practices. We will welcome the comments and suggestions of the users which may help improve it further.
