💡 What Do You Already Know?

Now that you've learned about the chain of infection, hand hygiene, and PPE, it's time to see how these concepts work together as a comprehensive infection control strategy. Each practice you've studied serves as a barrier that can interrupt disease transmission at different points in the infection process. 

Reflection Question:

• Think of a specific scenario from your daily life or workplace. How could you apply hand hygiene, PPE, and your understanding of the chain of infection together to prevent disease transmission in that situation?

Record your answer in your Student Workbook.
