I completed the Advanced Certificate in Infection Control Compliance for Care Homes at Stanmore School of Business, and I'm really pleased with the experience. The course content was well-structured and easy to follow, with each module covering a specific aspect of infection control compliance. I found the module on personal protective equipment really useful, as it gave me a better understanding of how to select and use the right equipment in different situations. The course materials were of high quality, with lots of diagrams and illustrations that helped to explain the concepts. My only criticism would be that some of the modules could be a bit more in-depth, but overall, I'm really satisfied with the course and would recommend it to others working in the care home sector.
