- ItemAntimicrobial stewardship in a rural regional hospital – growing a positive culture(Health & Medical Publishing Group, 2018-07) Junaid, E.; Jenkins, L.; Swanepoel, H.; North, Z.; Gould, T.Antimicrobial stewardship programmes have been introduced worldwide in response to the rise in antimicrobial resistance. The World Health Organization has mandated each Member State to produce a plan to address this problem. We report on the organic development of an antibiotic stewardship programme in a rural regional hospital in a resource-limited setting in South Africa. This has resulted in organisational change with increased awareness, participation, monitoring and education in antibiotic stewardship throughout the hospital.
