Impact of infectious exposures and outbreaks on nurse and infection preventionist workload.
Researchers evaluated workload increases reported by staff nurses and infection preventionists (IPs) in response to common exposures and outbreaks. Using surveys, they concluded that organisms that are easier to treat and more difficult to spread, such as scabies or lice, can contribute substantially to nursing workload. Additionally, three-quarters of the nurses and one-half of the IPs reported that C difficile adds more than one hour to their daily workload.
