WARD HERO SESSIONS  ·  FACILITATION PACKAGE

What you actually get, and what you do with it.

A digital pack you download once and use as often as you like. About an hour of preparation to learn it. Sixty minutes to run it. Designed to give educators a structured, defensible workshop they can deliver repeatedly without getting bored of it themselves.

WHAT’S IN THE PACK

Six components, each doing a specific job

The slide deck
Editable PowerPoint · 25 slides · Pandemos house style

Navy and yellow, designed to project well in lecture theatres, seminar rooms, and ward education rooms. Stage-numbered (Beats 1–5) so an educator running a compressed or extended variant can skip cleanly. Editable so you can add your ward’s audit data, swap in your local photos, or insert a slide of your own institution’s data before the closing.

What it lets you do: Run the workshop with materials that fit your specific teaching context, not generic stock content. Adapt without redesigning.

The facilitator guide
PDF · ~25 pages · A4

Slide-by-slide walkthrough. For each slide: speaker script you can adapt or read verbatim, what to do, what to watch for in the room, why the slide is structured the way it is. Plus front matter on preparation, workshop arc, and audience adaptation. Plus an anticipated-questions section with prepared responses.

What it lets you do: Run the workshop competently the first time without having designed it yourself. Resist the urge to over-explain. Handle the awkward questions a sharp participant will ask.

The commitment cards
Print-ready PDF · editable SVG · A6 postcard format

Two-sided. Designed for handwriting on the front and reference on the back. Print-ready PDF with bleed for commercial print. Editable SVG so you can rebrand for your own institution if useful, or translate the deadline reminder into your local language.

What it lets you do: Give every participant a physical artefact to take home. The card is the difference between a workshop that feels good in the moment and one that survives contact with Monday morning.

Three timing variants
30, 60, and 90 minutes

The 60-minute version is the default. The 30-minute is for compressed slots in larger training days. The 90-minute is for half-day IPC modules that want a deeper debrief. The deck and guide cover all three; the variant you run is a facilitator decision, not a different download.

What it lets you do: Run the workshop in whatever slot you actually have, without redesigning it.

An anticipated-questions reference
Embedded in the facilitator guide

Twelve questions that come up frequently in pilot sessions, with prepared responses. Includes the awkward ones: “What’s the evidence this works?” “Isn’t this just a game?” “Why isn’t Moment 2 in the game?” “Does this count as CPD?”

What it lets you do: Stay calm when a participant pushes back. Most of the questions you’ll get are predictable; this means you can think about how to answer well in advance.

Free updates as the evidence base evolves
Lifetime of the pack

When ECDC publishes new point-prevalence data, when WHO updates the Multimodal Strategy, when the Ward Hero game itself changes, the pack gets refreshed. Buyers of the original version receive updated downloads at no additional charge.

What it lets you do: Trust that the slide quoting “4.3 million HAIs/year” won’t quietly become out of date.

WHAT YOU DON’T GET

And what to do about it

You don’t get specialist IPC training. This is a workshop about why compliance fails, not a course on infection control. If your participants need foundational IPC content, this isn’t the right tool — they need a different programme first, then this can come on top as a reflection layer.

You don’t get accreditation or CPD certification. Pandemos doesn’t issue CPD certificates. If your institution wants to award CPD credit for this workshop, you’ll need to go through your local body — we can provide the workshop specification and evidence-base reference list to support that application.

WHO CAN USE THIS PACKAGE?

This pack is good for IPC educators, training coordinators, nursing-school faculty, and junior-doctor programme directors who want a structured, defensible, time-efficient way to run a hand hygiene reflection workshop. It’s not designed for: dedicated IPC specialists looking for advanced content, large lecture audiences (it works best at 8–25 participants), or institutions that want a fully branded build with hosted infrastructure (see the institutional tier for that).
