Abstract:
The prevention and control of hospital infections(hereinafter referred to as infection control) is key to the implementation of " medical and prevention integration" in medical institutions. And the professional knowledge and skill level of infection control professionals is one of the critical factors directly affecting the infection control capacity of these institutions. Jiangsu Province has been exploring to establish a job training system for newly recruited full-time infection control staff since 2021 based on their core competency needs. In January 2022, the new training system was put into use. The province formulated a training outline for new full-time infection control personnel, established a provincial-level infection control trainers pool through training and competitive selection, and then selected the best ones for provincial infection control full-time personnel training bases. Then the province organized job training covering both theoretical learning and practical aspects, and examined their corresponding theoretical knowledge and practical operation. Theoretical learning was made via online courses; Practical training was made at designated tertiary hospitals, covering clinical practice in key departments, environmental hygiene monitoring, hospital infection case monitoring, and application of infection control information systems. Among 804 new full-time personnel trained in 2022, 567 passed the graduation examination at a pass rate of 70.52%. The job training system for new full-time infection control personnel built in Jiangsu Province proves useful for the management of job training for such personnel in other provinces.
