In this webinar, Dr Susanne Surman-Lee will take a back-to-basics approach to waterborne pathogens in healthcare, focusing on who these organisms are, how they survive within water systems, how they are transmitted, and how patients become exposed.
The session will also explore why some waterborne bacteria are difficult to control, how antimicrobial resistance can emerge and persist in these environments, and the implications for patient safety.
This webinar is aimed at infection prevention and control and public health professionals, water treatment providers, estates and facilities teams and healthcare designers seeking a clearer understanding of waterborne infection risks.
This webinar is sponsored with an educational grant from PALL Medical.

Join us at for an evening of engaging discussions around the shape of greener cleaner healthcare. Join Sidara companies at 6pm on Wednesday 24 June, as we look to the future of sustainable healthcare infrastructure as part of London Climate Action Week. Our panel session will discuss how shifts in the UK’s population are driving a fundamental evolution in the way care is delivered, and what this means for the future of health systems.
As new care models continue to emerge, the discussion will consider their implications for the nation’s healthcare estate, examining how planning, design, delivery and operation must adapt to create facilities that are resilient, sustainable, and capable of supporting future demand. Following the panel session, guests are invited to stay for networking with fellow industry professionals, along with the opportunity to enjoy a tour of our BREEAM Outstanding 150 Holborn office, recently recognised as one of the most sustainable and technologically advanced workplaces of its kind in the country.
