November 2019 Commentary contribution to the AMIS website
The AMIS website (Fresh Approaches to the Study of Antimicrobials in Society) provides a very useful hub for social science based/informed research around AMR. The commentary section provides a forum for new information and critical perspectives. This month RIPEN has contributed a commentary based on the study to date: https://www.antimicrobialsinsociety.org/commentaries/ . We hope this helps stimulate wider interest and discussion around the nursing contribution in this field.

October 2019 Creative policy making to address AMR
On Friday 4th October 2019, policy makers, practitioners (including RIPEN participants), educators and researchers met at the RCN headquarters in London. During a 5 hour workshop, we drew on the outputs from the RIPEN workshops, to design innovative policy directives to address AMR. This successful event progressed our aim within RIPEN: to ensure that the nursing contribution to address AMR is fully recognised and leveraged to optimise patient care and safety, both now and into the future. The briefing paper for the event is available here in two versions: one for web viewing and one for print quality download.

June 2019 RIPEN workshops draw on the past to inform the future
This month saw the completion of the final workshops of RIPEN, in both London and Glasgow. The RIPEN workshops have been an outstanding success with health care practitioners, the majority nurses, taking part from across the UK. In the latter workshops, we explored how infection practice from the past, before antibiotics were widely available, could be used to shape current and future nursing-led practices to address AMR. Collaborating with artist and designer, Christine Jones, the RIPEN research team and participants have made a short film of this process which can be viewed here: vimeo.com/368059130
