课程概况
Vets and human health professionals both have a responsibility to address the challenge of antimicrobial stewardship. Veterinary surgeons, pharmacists and nurses need the skills to prescribe antibiotics rationally and responsibly.
On this 3-week course led by UK veterinary schools, you’ll challenge the norms of veterinary prescribing and gain the tools needed to introduce good antimicrobial stewardship practices in your own context. You’ll explore the challenges of monitoring responsible medicine use and gain the confidence needed to instil change in your own veterinary practice.
