So sorry to hear that Terry. I have been wondering of late why and how SSI prevention seems to have dropped from our priority lists as AMS, BSI, HH, S diff, S aureus BSI and CLABSI prevention dance across our radars.

Thanks Cath.

Great time to remind everyone about what resources are available for consumers to engage them on their journey in healthcare and preventing infections.
ACIPC Member Services Committee also developed these excellent resource for consumers that can be found on the link below.
Each page has a printable FAQ.
Encourage everyone to share it and spread the knowledge.
