Hey Yeng

Our hospital undertook a pilot project utilising the CEC toolkit
http://www.cec.health.nsw.gov.au/patient-safety-programs/adult-patient-safety/cauti-prevention

https://www.idhjournal.com.au/article/S2468-0451(16)30247-4/pdf

I have attached the article that was published which outlines how this project was carried out. We had great results with this project and I agree with Jo that we need to get back to teaching the basics. There was a lot of time invested for teaching staff

Hopefully this will assist you
Thanks

Happy New Year and Good luck
