Welcome to the Gauteng Infection Control Society
What we do
The GICS (Gauteng Infection Control Society) is a chapter of FIDSSA (Federation of Infectious Diseases Societies of Southern Africa).
We are committed to a unified approach to the prevention and control of infections associated with a visit to a healthcare facility and to create a safer environment for both patients and staff.
Our vision is to empower our members with sound and evidence based knowledge to establish healthcare facilities without infections.
