Effective audit and feedback incorporate behavioural science principles to drive behaviour change and improve the quality of patient care. This talk on November 14 at 12:00 p.m. will review recent evidence on the effectiveness of antibiotic audit and feedback in primary care as well as current and future initiatives to incorporate audit and feedback into antimicrobial resistance action plans in Ontario.
