Abstract

Creating a meaningful infection control program in the home care setting proved to be challenging for agency leaders of one hospital-based home healthcare agency. Challenges arose when agency leaders provided infection control (IC) data to the hospital's IC Committee. The IC Section Chief asked for national benchmark comparisons to align home healthcare reporting to that of the hospital level. At that point, it was evident that the home healthcare IC program lacked definition and structure. The purpose of this article is to share how one agency built a meaningful IC program.

摘要

对于一家医院附属的家庭医疗保健机构的机构负责人来说，在家庭护理环境中创建一个有意义的感染控制计划被证明是一项挑战。当机构负责人向医院的感染控制委员会提供感染控制（IC）数据时，挑战就出现了。感染控制科科长要求进行全国性的基准比较，以使家庭医疗保健报告与医院层面的报告保持一致。在那时，很明显家庭医疗保健感染控制计划缺乏明确的定义和结构。本文的目的是分享一家机构如何构建一个有意义的感染控制计划。
