New Program—New Pricing—You Can't Afford to Miss This One!
Infection Prevention and Environment of Care:
Partnership and Collaboration
May 18, 2010
Oakbrook Terrace, IL
Product Code: EDU1062
The Joint Commission standards and requirements, including the EC and IC standards, insist on a connection. They require organizations to monitor, analyze and improve conditions in the environment, specifically including infection prevention. And to a much greater degree than ever before, the requirements insist that organization leadership assume responsibility for reducing the risk and transmission of healthcare-associated infections, including environmental risks.
This seminar is designed to highlight the inter-relatedness and commonalities of an organization's IC and EC team in achieving a zero tolerance rate in avoidable HAI's and compliance with the Joint Commission's accreditation standards.
