Infection Prevention & Control (IPC) Audits and support

While training is essential,  it's only half the picture. Our Infection Prevention & Control audits help you see what's  working, what's  missing, and what to fix first, so your team can reduce risk and demonstrate good practice with confidence.

We support organisations that range from, care homes to aesthetic clinics across Manchester and the surrounding area with practical, no-nonsense audits that focus on real-world compliance and safer day-to-day routines.

Who our audits are for

  • Care homes and domiciliary care providers who need reassurance that IPC procedures are being followed consistently
  • Aesthetic clinics (injectables, skin, beauty and wellness) that want to strengthen hygiene controls and protect clients and staff
  • Managers preparing for inspections, on boarding new staff, or responding to incidents/near-misses

What we review (typical audit areas)

  • Hand hygiene standards and staff practice
  • PPE selection, use, and disposal
  • Cleaning schedules, products, and documentation
  • Decontamination and equipment hygiene (where applicable)
  • Waste handling and sharps safety
  • Laundry and linen processes (care settings)
  • Treatment room set-up and cross-contamination controls (aesthetic settings)
  • Policies, risk assessments, and staff knowledge checks

What you'll receive

  • A clear audit summary with priority actions (what to fix now vs later)
  • Practical recommendations your team can implement immediately

How it works

  1. Quick call to understand your setting, services, and current concerns
  2. Onsite audit visit (discreet, supportive, and focused on improvement)

Action plan with clear next steps
