Introduction
The current pandemic poses a particular challenge for both new and well-experienced professionals working with older adults in hospitals, nursing homes or even at home. The challenges of COVID-19 are ever-reminding that a top priority for patient safety is the strict adherence to hygiene standards.
The Faculty of Medicine and Health at EDU led by Dean Prof. Dr. med. Klaus van Ackern developed the Safety and Hygiene in Infectious Diseases (SHIDA) online training to prepare healthcare and nursing staff, as well as those providing care at home, to better protect their patients and themselves against infections, including COVID-19.
SHIDA is therefore offered on two levels to serve multiple needs with a nurse as well as a caregiver track.
