health care setting (Estrich and et. al., 2020). In this report, the discussion is based on infection
control that follow the structure of background and the search strategy that provide information
about the source of data collection which is relevant to infection control. The qualitative and the
quantitative research article is selected for this report. Moreover, the annotated bibliography is
being underlying in the research with the thematic perspective of article which derive the aspect
as a summary (Brusaferro and et. al., 2018.
BACKGROUND
The infection control is usually a helpful aspect which follow under the healthcare setting

infection prevention and the control is the clinical application which is based on the
microbiology in the term of practice. The RCN consider some of the areas in order to enhance
the key to quality, patient safety and system which is based on governance and an integral
elements of the reducing the antimicrobial resistance named (AMR) (Alrubaiee and et. al., 2017).
