Why it’s important

Antimicrobial resistance is a threat to public health. Healthcare professionals, including antimicrobial stewardship teams, remain the front line of defence to safeguard antibiotics for the future. This session will equip teams with insight, support, and shared learning to tackle antimicrobial resistance and conserve antibiotics for all, including a detailed exploration of NHS England’s recently published prompt IVOS CQUIN.
