* The Irish Department of Health published a National Action Plan on Antimicrobial Resistance in October 2017.<ref>{{cite web|date=October 2017|title=Ireland's National Action Plan on Antimicrobial Resistance 2017 – 2020|url=https://www.lenus.ie/handle/10147/622661|via=Lenus (Irish Health Repository)|access-date=11 January 2019|archive-date=10 August 2022|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20220810172114/https://www.lenus.ie/handle/10147/622661|url-status=live}}</ref> The Strategy for the Control of Antimicrobial Resistance in Ireland (SARI), Iaunched in 2001 developed Guidelines for Antimicrobial Stewardship in Hospitals in Ireland<ref>{{cite book|url=https://www.lenus.ie/handle/10147/303394|title=Guidelines for antimicrobial stewardship in hospitals in Ireland|author=SARI Hospital Antimicrobial Stewardship Working Group|publisher=HSE Health Protection Surveillance Centre (HPSC)|year=2009|isbn=978-0-9551236-7-2|location=Dublin|access-date=11 January 2019|archive-date=5 December 2021|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20211205203416/https://www.lenus.ie/handle/10147/303394|url-status=live}}</ref> in conjunction with the Health Protection Surveillance Centre, these were published in 2009.

* The World Health Organization has published the 2024 Bacterial Priority Pathogens List which covers 15 families of antibiotic-resistant bacterial pathogens. Notable among these are Gram-negative bacteria resistant to last-resort antibiotics, drug-resistant mycobacterium tuberculosis, and other high-burden resistant pathogens such as Salmonella, Shigella, Neisseria gonorrhoeae, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, and Staphylococcus aureus. The inclusion of these pathogens in the list underscores their global impact in terms of burden, as well as issues related to transmissibility, treatability, and prevention options. It also reflects the R&D pipeline of new treatments and emerging resistance trends.<ref>{{Cite web |title=WHO bacterial priority pathogens list, 2024: Bacterial pathogens of public health importance to guide research, development and strategies to prevent and control antimicrobial resistance |url=https://www.who.int/publications-detail-redirect/9789240093461 |access-date=2024-05-20 |website=www.who.int |language=en}}</ref>
