Best care bundles are a set of practices tied together which are proven to prevent heathcare associated infections. Listen Vin has a chat with Lesley Devenish, a seasoned IPC nurse practitioner and teacher about these bundles.

About our Guest:

My basic nursing training was completed through the Rand Afrikaans University (now U.J.)

and post-grad courses through the University of South Africa. I started in Infection Control 25 years ago in the private sector. After gaining years of hospital experience, I moved into management and was head of Infection Prevention & Control (IPC) at the Netcare Group of hospitals for 11 years. I had loved the teaching part of my role at Netcare head office and pursued a more teaching-related role at Wits University and, although I am now semi-retired, still teach the IPC course through Wits Health Consortium. I am an avid reader and a very happy Granny, with four beautiful grandchildren.
