Changes in
Infection
Prevention
Over the last few years a
number of changes have
occurred in regulatory and
professional associations in
regards to those that help
protect patients from
healthcare-associated
infections (HAI) in clinical
and other settings around
the world. These changes
dramatically affected those
who specialize in
preventing these infections –
known as Infection
Preventionists.
In some facilities, staff members were not happy and left to pursue new adventures. In others, more
staff was needed to manage the increased workload or to meet the increased educational requirements.
In summary, many facilities had to hire more staff. Most healthcare workers don’t have degrees in
Infection Prevention. They learn it on the job. So, to meet the demands, many facilities had to hire staff
without a work history in infection prevention. How does a facility teach these healthcare workers
quickly and effectively and maintain continuous of quality care?
What training is available for new Infection Preventionists? How do they jump in and learn the
necessary information from the ground up? How can this information be learned quickly and
completely?
