The current approach to infection control management is too manual, too compartmentalized, too narrow in scope, and too slow. Strengthen your COVID-19 response and prepare for future pandemics by using CARES Act funds to digitize your entire infection control program.
COVID-19 inspires ‘overdue’ infection control innovation
History may come to see COVID-19 as the seminal event shaping infection control practices in healthcare. While the pandemic, so far, has spotlighted the ineffectiveness of current processes to assess, plan and manage infection control risks, there is also a bright side. The urgent need to keep residents, staff and visitors safe has inspired long-overdue innovation in proactively managing all infection control risks at nursing homes and other care sites.

The CARES Act was designed to bring public health and economic relief to American citizens when the pandemic struck in March of 2020. It encompasses over $2 trillion in aid. The good news is that the CARES Act funds can be used for implementing a comprehensive infection control management system.
