This week in practice is Antimicrobial Awareness week.

Antimicrobial resistance occurs when bacteria adapt and antibiotics become less effective in treating infections. This is a growing global health concern but the good news is that we can all play a role in protecting antibiotics for the future.

Our team will be sharing with our colleagues and patients best practice and useful hints and tips for antibiotic use and for when an antibiotic is not required.
