Long Term Care Baseline Prevention Practices Assessment Online Survey
The purpose of this memo is to announce the availability of the Long Term
Care Baseline Prevention Practices Assessment Online Survey located at http://4.selectsurvey.net/DHS/TakeSurvey.aspx?SurveyID=l6009ol3
The Wisconsin Healthcare-Associated Infections (HAIs) in Long-Term Care (LTC)
Coalition Steering Committee developed this online prevention practices
assessment survey based on the CDC
LTC Baseline Prevention Practices Assessment Tool to evaluate the status
of infection prevention and control efforts in Wisconsin LTC facilities.
Please refer to DQA Memo 12-016,
Wisconsin Healthcare-Associated Infections (HAIs) in Long-Term Care
Coalition.
While completion of the survey is voluntary, the Wisconsin HAI in LTC
Coalition requests that each LTC facility in Wisconsin, with input from the
facility's infection preventionist, complete the anonymous online survey
once by November 30, 2012. Survey results will be used to assist the
Coalition in planning education and training on prevention and treatment of
HAIs.
The aggregate results of the survey will be shared with the CDC as well
as Wisconsin's LTC community. The survey will be repeated in two years to
measure practice change(s) over time.
Please direct questions regarding this memo to Vicky Griffin, Nursing
Consultant, at (414) 227-4705 or via email at Victoria.Griffin@wi.gov.
