Evidence found in paper:

"Funding for paediatric AMS and IPC activity in the UK is challenging, and is particularly stretched in the current political and healthcare climate. The issue is most starkly observed in neonatal ICUs, where HCAI outbreaks are commonplace,,, and antimicrobial use is very high, providing a nidus for development of AMR infections and associated long-term adverse health outcomes. Participation in these large-scale collaborative programmes will provide additional evidence of the benefits of paediatric AMS activity, both clinical and financial, helping paediatric services to argue for additional paid AMS time."
