Utilising Social Science and Behaviour Change in Antimicrobial Stewardship Programmes: Improving Healthcare

The British Society for Antimicrobial Chemotherapy via FutureLearn

Overview

Hospital healthcare delivery is complex with changing priorities and demands. Improvements are required but how can we ensure they are delivered. Understanding behaviour is essential for change. This course builds on Week 5 of Antimicrobial Stewardship: Managing Antibiotic Resistance but is not a prerequisite for taking this course.

This course is designed for those involved in healthcare improvement, and will be of particular interest to members of Antimicrobial Stewardship Committees and team leads.
