| Abstract | The path of India's health sector towards digital transformation has fast-forwarded and opened new horizons to improve and confront infection prevention and control (IPC) at the same time. In other words, the digital transformation has made the issue of sustainability and workforce more complicated. The present paper discusses the ways through which Indian hospitals can introduce eco-friendly IPC practices that synchronize technology, environment and health workers' comfort. The research, which is based on secondary data from peer-reviewed studies, national reports, and institutional frameworks, collates the evidence of the influence of digital tools, ecological practices, and psychosocial systems in healthcare. The quantitative data point to the fact that digital surveillance and AI-based monitoring bring down infection rates by as much as 40%, while in hospitals with high-tech facilities, the amount of biomedical waste and energy consumption goes up by 10% to 15%. From the qualitative part of the study analyzing global cases, it is found out that inclusive leadership, staff empowerment and green procurement are the major practices that cool down the ecological and psychological pressures. The research recommends a multilayered People–Planet–Protection model that encompasses digital governance, circular economy principles, and workforce well-being to help India in its journey towards sustainable infection control which conforms to the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs 3, 9, 12, 13). |
