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.
Apply today! NACCHO is offering a scholarship opportunity for local health department staff obtaining certification in infection control (CIC) or a-IPC (Associate – Infection Prevention and Control) entry-level certification. The deadline to submit an application is the end of the day on Friday, January 27.
HAIs and AMR are a threat to patients, and subsequently, public health safety. Rural, Frontier, and Small LHDs face distinct barriers and can provide leadership in surveillance, outbreak investigations, and prevention by collaborating with healthcare and community partners.
Applications due December 19. NACCHO is giving funds to local health departments to enhance local capacity to prevent and respond to healthcare-associated infections and antimicrobial resistant threats by piloting and implementing CDC's Local Strategy for HAI/AR.
