The World Health Organization (WHO) recently updated guidelines for the core components of an effective infection prevention program, according to an article on the Becker's Infection Control & Clinical Quality website.
The latest guidelines are designed to be applicable to all healthcare organizations.
Two of WHO's eight core components for infection prevention programs are:
• Staff education should be a key component of the infection prevention program. Educational efforts should include bedside simulations designed to put HAI reduction strategies into practice.
• Hospital-acquired infection rates should be tracked both within the facility and on a national scale
