This new book, \u003cem\u003eInfection Prevention and Control: A Social Science Perspective\u003c\/em\u003e positions the specialty of IPC as more than a technical discipline concerned with microbes. It is about people and their behaviour in context and the book therefore explores a number of relevant social sciences and their relationship to IPC across different contexts and cultures. IPC is relevant to every person who works in, and accesses health care and it remains a global challenge. Exploring novel approaches and perspectives that expand our collective horizons in an ever changing and evolving IPC landscape therefore makes sense.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eKey Features:\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOffers new perspectives beyond the topic area of infection prevention and control, to push the frontiers of knowledge and to challenge the status quo\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eInterprofessional in nature and relevant\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003ePart 1: Psychosocial Perspectives \u003cbr\u003eChapter 1: Psychosocial theories and approaches: Their impact upon infection prevention and control\u003cbr\u003eChapter 2: The psychosocial nature of infection prevention and control\u003cbr\u003eChapter 3: The concept of truth\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003ePart 2: Leadership Perspectives\u003cbr\u003eChapter 4: Leadership and influence in infection prevention and control \u003cbr\u003eChapter 5: Power and compliance within infection prevention and control practice\u003cbr\u003eChapter 6: Patient safety, governance, leadership and infection prevention and control\u003cbr\u003eChapter 7: Communicating with compassion: service user perspectives\u003cbr\u003eChapter 8: The weaponising of IPC and its heart breaking consequences\u003cbr\u003eChapter 9: Why do we choose to work in infection prevention and control?\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003ePart 3: Real world perspectives\u003cbr\u003eChapter 10: Human factors engineering in infection prevention and control\u003cbr\u003eChapter 11: How we talk about infection prevention and hand hygiene matters for behaviour change \u003cbr\u003eChapter 12: Do campaigns make you anxious: A focus on unintended consequences\u003cbr\u003eChapter 13: Educating, engaging, campaigning – social media as an adjunct to infection prevention and control\u003cbr\u003eChapter 14: Unshackling infectiousness and dismantling stigma: Gay men and HIV\u003cbr\u003eChapter 15: Physician Associates and their role in reducing the transmission of infection - a personal perspective\u003cbr\u003eChapter 16: Infection prevention and control in healthcare-built environments\u003cbr\u003eChapter 17: Musings on philosophy and infection prevention and control\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Taylor \u0026 Francis Ltd","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51019067720023,"sku":"9781032459448","price":89.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0817\/1739\/5799\/files\/9781032459448.jpg?v=1750779198","url":"https:\/\/bookcurl.com\/products\/infection-prevention-and-control-9781032459448","provider":"Book Curl","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
