Programme Introduction
About this programme
👩⚕️ Nursing Practice
✅ Bedside Skills
📋 Case-Based Learning
Labour rooms combine intimate personal care with real infection risk for both mother and newborn, making structured infection prevention practice essential throughout labour and delivery.
Effective labour room IPC depends on consistent hygiene practice, appropriate perineal care technique, correct PPE use, and a safe, structured handover process when the newborn is transferred to ongoing care.
TerraLeap’s Labour Room IPC programme is designed for OB nurses, obstetricians, midwives, and IPC teams, covering hygiene, perineal care, PPE, and neonatal handover.
The programme covers hygiene practices specific to labour and delivery, correct perineal care technique, appropriate PPE selection, and safe infection-conscious neonatal handover procedures.
Bedside skill, clinical confidence — built for real nursing practice.
