Welcome to the Nursing Home C. difficile Initiative. This webinar is the first of a three-part series for participants in the C. difficile Initiative. As members of this initiative, long term care facilities will help to establish a national baseline for C. difficile in nursing homes, while gaining valuable skills and resources related to quality reporting and improvement.
Join us for an informational session about the new Nursing Home C. difficile Initiative. Organizations that participate in the initiative will receive free technical assistance and support on tracking and preventing C. difficile infections. Through surveillance and data submission, these facilities will be part of establishing the national baseline for C. difficile in nursing homes and be better positioned for future health care associated infection reporting and quality requirements.
