Consumer outreach
Jennie Mayfield, clinical epidemiologist, Barnes-Jewish Hospital/Washington University School of Medicine, St. Louis, and president-elect, APIC, says science about C. diff's multiple strains and how the pathogen moves among populations remains a mystery.
"I think until we answer some of those basic questions, hospitals are going to continue to do what seems to work in their individual facilities. It becomes a case of my hospital is doing one thing and the hospital next door may do something else to prevent the spread," she says.
-- Health Facilities Management, May 2013
“However, only 42 percent of respondents said C. difficileinfection rates at their facilities had declined, while
43 percent said there was no decrease, according to the findings presented Monday at an APIC conference on C. difficile, held in Baltimore.”
-- HealthDay, 3/14/13

Competency & Certification
IP Competency Model
• The model has been developed to illustrate current and future practice along the infection preventionist’s (IP) career path.
• The core of the model is based on the principles and practices of safety science. Foundational elements also include the CBIC® core competencies and professional practice standards.
• Baseline IP core competencies are defined by CBIC ® and are derived from their evidence-based practice analysis research.
• The four green “spokes” of the diagram indicate priority areas of professional development for all IPs in the near future (3-5 years) These areas expand on the foundational components. While individual skills will vary, the intent is that ongoing professional development will lead to mastery across domains over time.
• CIC® certification represents the bridging point between novice and proficient career levels and is the hallmark of competency across the career continuum.
• The advanced (expert) will have achieved a high level of knowledge and skill in those domains most closely aligned with the IP’s career goals.
The Competency Model: Next Phase
New Self Assessment Tool
focuses on proficient and advanced career stages

future oriented domains

Federal HAI Reporting To NHSN
Why Talk To Policymakers About NHSN?
Federal Agencies use varied HAI data collection systems.
Patients and IPs benefit from the use of NHSN which:
•provides a clearly defined, scientifically sound system for reporting HAIs•ensures fair comparisons between facilities.
Talking to legislators about NHSN allows us to discuss:•who infection preventionists are and the important work they do to protect
patients;
•how the use of actionable data helps focus HAI prevention efforts;•the need for research to address scientific gaps in HAI prevention.
We are not calling for more data collection, just adequate funding to supportthe functionality of NHSN.
•In this budget climate, that won’t happen without advocacy.
