Prevention and control of healthcare-associated infections

Infections transmitted in healthcare and living environments represent a burden that is largely avoidable through good infection prevention and reprocessing of medical devices practices.

This field of expertise makes it possible to equip the health network with best practices, in particular through surveillance activities, the development of recommendations adapted to different contexts and the assessment of infectious risks. 

Nosocomial infections, reprocessing of medical devices and evaluation of healthcare workers infected with blood-borne viruses are included in this field of expertise.
