This metal-ring, notebook-style guide covers program administration, the physical environment, and disease management and regulatory compliance for infection control in health care facilities, in practice settings including the admitting department, the anesthesia department, the operating room, home care, and other settings. It gives detailed advice on setting up an infection control program infrastructure or revamping an existing one, and offers guidelines on surveillance and prevention, patient care, personnel and employee health, visitation, environmental and facilities management, and accreditation and regulatory compliance. Infectious diseases and emerging pathogens are covered. Tools provided include disease fact sheets, health care- associated infection definitions for acute care and home settings, precautions for specific infections and contagious conditions, sample scenarios, position descriptions, and job competencies. An extensive appendix of policies and procedures is included. The accompanying CD- ROM contains many of the policies, guidelines, and other documents. Allen is director of Infection Control at Downstate Medical Center. Frye is contributing editor of Perioperative Services: Administration, Resource Management, and Patient Care.
