The
Department of Infection Control and Prevention at University
Hospitals of Cleveland coordinates efforts to prevent and control
nosocomial infection. We perform surveillance and documentation of
nosocomial infection, offer consultation on infection control issues
and oversee policy and procedure development. We also provide
educational programs to improve patient care and comply with
regulatory agencies. We have input in many areas of hospital
functions through committee membership.
