AHRQ Safety Program for HAI Prevention

The AHRQ Safety Program for Healthcare-Associated Infection Prevention is recruiting adult intensive and non-intensive care units for its catheter-associated urinary tract infection (CAUTI) cohort. In webinars on August 13 and 28, Drs. Bradford Winters and Sara Cosgrove, lead subject matter experts, presented details of the program, which aims to reduce CAUTI, strengthen patient safety culture, and improve team communication. Additional cohort benefits include expert coaching, monthly educational webinars, implementation support, benchmarking reports, free CME/CEU credits, and a flexible data collection process. Responding to attendee questions, the presenters offered guidance on structuring teams, applying at the hospital or unit level, and ensuring adequate staff support for multiple units.
