With great pride and enthusiasm, we welcome you to the Infection Prevention and Control (IPC) Symposium under the umbrella of SINMAC.

This distinguished gathering brings together leaders, experts, and innovators across healthcare disciplines, united by a shared commitment to advancing patient safety, strengthening health systems, and achieving excellence in infection prevention and control.

In today’s rapidly evolving healthcare landscape—shaped by emerging infectious threats, antimicrobial resistance, and increasing system complexity—the role of IPC has never been more critical. Aligned with the 12^th SINMAC theme, “Transforming Family Health Beyond Borders Through Nursing, Midwifery and Allied Health Excellence,” this symposium highlights the vital contribution of IPC as a cornerstone of safe, high‑quality, and sustainable healthcare for individuals, families, and communities worldwide.

This symposium serves as a dynamic platform to inspire transformation, foster collaboration, and showcase innovative, evidence‑based practices that transcend borders and disciplines. Through insightful discussions, expert‑led sessions, and the sharing of real‑world experiences, we aim to empower healthcare professionals with the knowledge, tools, and vision needed to drive lasting improvements across all care settings.

We are honored by your presence and active participation, and we look forward to an engaging, impactful, and forward‑thinking symposium that strengthens our collective commitment to protecting health and enhancing care delivery.

Together, we advance. Together, we protect. Together, we lead.
