    Breaking Barriers: Bridging Quality & Infection Control

    What makes this workshop different?

    Quality and Infection Control are two essential pillars of patient safety — but inside hospitals they often approach the same challenge from different angles. One team says "I see a risk." The other says "I need evidence." The real question is how to move from different perspectives to one shared approach.

    Through GAHAR-based scenarios and real hospital accreditation challenges, participants explore where infection control risks, clinical practice, documentation, audits and accreditation expectations intersect — then move beyond spotting deficiencies to practical quality improvement tools that address system-level problems instead of individual blame.
