SICPs and TBPs (Standard infection control precautions and Transmission based precautions) Policy for General Practice
‘Standard infection control precautions’ (SICPs) must be used by all Practice staff in all situations for contact with patients, their environment or equipment. SICPs are the foundation for safe practice and break the chain of infection which protects patients, visitors and staff. There is often no way of knowing who is infected, so by applying SICPs to all people at all times, best practice becomes second nature and the risk of infection is minimised.
A downloadable Community IPC Policy for General Practice (see below) which can be adopted by your organisation. Also suitable for use within Podiatry.
