Hospital infection programs
Hospital infection programs are initiatives designed to prevent and control infections that can occur within healthcare facilities. They involve practices such as strict hand hygiene, sterilization of equipment, monitoring of infection rates, and staff training. The goal is to reduce the risk of patients, staff, and visitors contracting infections like MRSA or other hospital-acquired infections. These programs help create a safer environment, ensure compliance with health standards, and improve patient outcomes by minimizing preventable illnesses linked to hospital stays.
