Synopsis

This new book gives health care leaders and practitioners a straightforward, authoritative view of the current state of infection prevention and control. It features research based on articles published in "The Joint Commission Journal on Quality and Patient Safety", as well as practical improvement, compliance, and reporting tips, including: in-depth studies focusing on steps organizations have taken to avoid or mitigate infections in their organizations; road maps for staff-specific and organizational improvement in environmental issues, data reporting and analysis, risk assessment, and overall patient safety; tips and advice from practitioners and researchers; and, examples of sweeping, positive organizational changes. "Infection Prevention and Control: Current Research and Practice" presents something for every aspect of a health care organization - from executives to staff, from researchers to caregivers, and from the laboratory to the bedside.
