Returning to Baseline after COVID-19: Are We There Yet?

COVID-19 had significant negative impacts on healthcare associated infections (HAIs) incidence across the country. Practices changed in most organizations to address struggles with staffing, personal protective equipment shortages, and supply chain disruption. While COVID-19 cases have declined, some practices have been slow to return to baseline. This session will review areas that may still be increasing risk to patients along with recommendations for identifying and prioritizing opportunities for improvement.  

Learning Objectives: At the conclusion of this session, participants will be able to: 

  • Discuss the impact of COVID-19 on HAIs.
  • Reflect on the changes to the provision of care that occurred in response to COVID-19 surges.
  • Propose an assessment of current practices for return to baseline.
  • Consider mitigation approaches for escalating prevention efforts and improving patient safety.
