Forest House Medical Group aims to provide a clean and safe environment for patients, visitors, and staff in accordance with local and national guidelines.

Good hygiene procedures and infection prevention and control are essential for protection of the health of people using our services. The Health and Social Care act 2008 provides a foundation for activities undertaken by our practice to uphold standards.

Purpose

An annual statement will be generated by the practice each year in October and will summarise:

• Details of any infection transmission incidents and action taken
• Details of infection control audits, risk assessments and actions taken
• Details of any information and training received by staff.
• An update of policies, procedures and guidelines which may be required.
