About

 

Marjen Education Services is about Infection Prevention & Control education to the non- hospital sector. I engage participants through demonstration, competency checking and short, fun quizzes. Clients may choose to have me attend their organisation or come to one of my listed private courses or access my services through skype etc. Services are provided Australia wide

I am based in Melbourne and trained as a microbiologist – I have worked in many clinical laboratories and both taught and demonstrated in microbiology at tertiary level. I conducted hospital clinical waste audits for over 12 years until 2012 and have completed a recognised course (Dept of Health Vic) for pre/post HIV testing. In 2014 I was invited by the RACGP to contribute to their 5 th edition Infection Prevention& Control standards.
 
My interest in Infection Prevention & Control developed from a review I performed on the use and abuse of disinfectants in health care combined with the release of the national standard for instrument processing.

I have been providing this service for 25 years. The competency checking module is new and is included in the day course for General Practice for which I am permitted to award 8 APNA CPD hours
