Assessment tool of the minimum requirements for infection prevention and control programmes at the national level

Overview

The WHO national level assessment tool for the minimum requirements for infection prevention and control (IPC) programmes is a tool to support implementation of the WHO Minimum requirements for IPC programmes which are derived from the core components for IPC programmes recommended by WHO. Users should be familiar with the contents of that document, before using this tool.

This tool will assist countries in determining the minimum requirements for each core component that is in place and to identify those that need to be achieved. This tool is mostly based on selected indicators included in the WHO National IPC assessment tool 2 (IPCAT2).
