Enhancing resident safety by preventing healthcare-associated infection: a national initiative to reduce catheter-associated urinary tract infections in nursing homes.
The authors describe a new initiative based on lessons learned from a recent multimodal Targeted Infection Prevention program in a group of nursing homes as well as a national initiative to prevent catheter-associated urinary tract infections in over 950 acute care hospitals. This initiative will now be implemented in nearly 500 nursing homes through a project funded by AHRQ. It will emphasize professional development in catheter utilization, catheter care and maintenance, and antimicrobial stewardship.
