To increase the capacity of LHDs in healthcare infection prevention and control, NACCHO, in partnership with CDC’s Division of Healthcare Quality Promotion, is excited to announce the 2024 scholarship opportunity for LHD’s current staff to obtain a Certification in Infection Control (CIC) or Associate-Infection Prevention and Control (a-IPC).
NACCHO spoke with two LHDs, the Chicago Department of Public Health (CDPH) and the New York City Department of Health and Mental Hygiene (NYC DOHMH), to learn how each LHD has taken a One Health approach to tackling AMR in their community.
We asked our HAI/AR pilot project sites to reflect on their experiences and lessons learned since joining our project. Here is what one of our sites, Cass County, shared with us.
The Shared Healthcare Intervention to Eliminate Life-Threatening Dissemination of multidrug-resistant organisms (MDROs) in Orange County (SHIELD OC) Program, was a CDC-funded public health regional decolonization collaborative to combat the spread of endemic and emerging MDROs across healthcare facilities in Orange County, California.
