APIC FUTURES SUMMIT – 2004 Infection Prevention in the Changing Dynamics of Healthcare “Infection control professionals are complicit in boxing themselves in because they still spend an enormous amount of time in the records room and in retrospective data analysis. Some people are comfortable with that, but it is unconscionable.” –Ken Segel, Pittsburgh Regional Healthcare Initiative
14
APIC FUTURES SUMMIT – 2004 Infection Prevention in the Changing Dynamics of Healthcare “A lot of data collection and massaging, which have been a traditional role of ICPs, can be safely and better done by computers. This would allow ICPs to focus on more value-added activities, which would improve the entire healthcare process.” – Clay Dunagan, MD, VP. Quality, BJC Healthcare

16
APIC FUTURES SUMMIT – 2004 The Future of Infection Prevention & Control Technology is revolutionizing surveillance.

We must adapt. – Denise Cardo, MD, Director, DHQP, CDC; Georgian Ellis, VP. Operations, Shands Healthcare
