Nominations for HHS-APIC-SHEA 2012 Partnership in Prevention Award
New Deadline: August 17, 2012
The U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) has partnered with the Association for Professionals in Infection Control and Epidemiology, Inc (APIC) and the Society for Healthcare Epidemiology of America (SHEA) to create the Partnership in Prevention Award.
The nature and purpose of the Partnership in Prevention Award is to highlight and promote the work of one hospital that has achieved sustainable improvements based on the concepts of the “National Action Plan to Prevent Healthcare-Associated Infections: Roadmap to Elimination” and is helping to achieve the goals outlined by the HHS Partnership for Patients.
Preventing healthcare-associated infections (HAIs) requires a multidisciplinary, team-based approach – involving facility-level executive leaders, clinical leaders, infection control and prevention experts, and others.
The award program intends to recognize prevention leaders in the U.S. acute care community who have achieved wide-scale reduction and progress toward elimination of targeted HAIs. It also intends to showcase the outstanding efforts of clinicians, hospital executives, and hospital facilities who have improved clinical practice through utilization of evidence-based guidelines, achieved and maintained superior prevention results, and advanced best practices to improve patient safety.
Nominations for the award will be accepted through August 17, 2012, and the award announcement will take place October 15, 2012 during the 2012 International Infection Prevention Week. Additional information, including application instructions and eligibility criteria, can be viewed here.
We invite you to nominate your team. If you have any questions about the awards, please email the Partnership in Prevention Award team at awards@apic.org.
We look forward to seeing the great nominations highlighting the important work you do to prevent HAIs.
