Understand the benefits of having a diverse Infection Prevention workforce. It is important for parents and for those who deliver childcare to accept that no interpersonal activity
is without risk of transmission of infection at any time. Generally speaking the closer the physical
contact, the more likely infection is to spread from one person to another. There are particular issues
with small children because they tend put things in their mouths and naturally seek very close contact
with caregivers and other children. Many childcare services have had experience of dealing with these
challenges in the context of bacteria that cause diarrhoea such as Vero-Toxigenic E. coli (VTEC) or of
flu-like illness in childcare services.
