Joint Commission Resources is offering a new free resource to help combat a serious patient safety threat: multidrug–resistant organisms (MDROs). The new toolkit What Every Health Care Executive Should Know: The Cost of Antibiotic Resistance, is available for free download here. The Joint Commission’s National Patient Safety Goal 07.03.01 requires accredited organizations to implement best practices to facilitate the prevention of multiple drug resistant organisms. This toolkit can help organizations elucidate the problem of antibiotic resistance and identify the best practices that are suitable for their organization and patients. Does anybody have any stories about how they’re combating MDROs in their organization? I’d love to hear from you and I’m sure other readers of this blog and Patient Safety would enjoy hearing from you as well.
