Discuss outbreak management with an infectious diseases expert
Infection Prevention done well saves lives, cuts costs, and enhances facility performance.
Facilities that partner with Capsid Consulting meet monthly to discuss ASP and IP with their dedicated CIC certified infection preventionist.
As with each facility having a dedicated IP available to them, our IPs are always under direct supervision of a board certified infectious disease physicians.
We handle and give guidance on complexities such as:
-
MDROs (Multi Drug Resistant Organisms)
-
PPE use
-
Tranmission based precuations such as precautions based on risk factors for spread of infection
-
Resident selection placement and cohorting
-
Outbreak management such as COVID-19, or influenza, norovirus
-
Employee, resident and family education on policies and procedures
