Infection Prevention and Control for Congregate Living Settings
Integrating infection prevention and control (IPAC) best practices into care in congregate living settings will reduce the transmission of infections, decrease the risk of outbreaks, and protect residents, staff, and visitors. Implementation of IPAC best practices is essential to creating and maintaining a safe and healthy congregate living setting.
We offer expertise and tools to help health care workers understand and implement IPAC practices.
