Why Infection Prevention Matters

The primary goal of APIC’s IPC in Corrections training program is to equip correctional facility staff with the knowledge, skills, and best practices required to effectively prevent and control the spread of infections within the facility.

Upon completion of the IPC training program, your staff will be better equipped to create a safer and healthier environment for both individuals in custody and staff. To learn more about the IPC in Corrections, contact specialprojects@apic.org
