As the entire healthcare system battled COVID-19, complex infection prevention and control challenges continued. Issues persist from process implementation and monitoring to effective communication and leadership oversight. Why does infection prevention continue to be one of the most cited issues in Joint Commission surveys? 

Moderated by Greeley Vice President of Clinical Compliance & High Reliability Practice, Lisa Eddy, this webinar will provide perspectives around what Greeley consultants are hearing from The Joint Commission related to infection prevention regulation, along with what we’re seeing across our client base.

Objectives:

• While infection prevention has been one of the most cited survey issues for years, learn how COVID-19 has changed the game and why infection citations may become even more prevalent
• There is a great variance from one infection prevention program to the next. Learn about the domains within a maturity model and why continuing to move along the continuum is important
• Understand the special challenges inherent in surgical instrument processing and sterilization and heighten awareness related to high-level disinfection
• Hear about one health system’s efforts to improve its infection prevention metrics
