Technical Assistance and In-Service Education

Members identified multiple areas of need with a focus on infection control and antibiotic stewardship. I have developed education in the following topics to begin to develop a ‘menu’ of offerings for direct care providers. These can be tailored to be for clinical or non-clinical staff and leadership if needed.
