About Infection Control Risk Assessment (ICRA) Program

Programme Introduction

About this programme

Infection Control Risk Assessment (ICRA) is a structured, proactive approach used in healthcare facilities to identify, evaluate, and control infection-related risks before they result in harm. The Infection Control Risk Assessment (ICRA) Program is designed to train healthcare professionals and facility teams in applying ICRA principles for safer patient care, improved infection prevention planning, and stronger compliance with quality and accreditation standards. This course emphasizes risk-based thinking, practical assessment tools, and implementation strategies aligned with real hospital environments.

Infection Control Risk Assessment is a structured approach to identifying, scoring, and mitigating infection risks before they translate into harm — particularly during construction, renovation, and high-risk clinical activities.

This programme covers the ICRA framework, risk-class matrices, and the practical decision-making required to integrate ICRA into hospital construction, renovation, and project planning workflows.

🛡 Built for safer care. Structured, evidence-based, and mapped to global IPC standards — designed to translate directly into stronger patient and staff safety.
