Event Overview:
“Laboratory professionals support clinical operations on a daily basis but are often not involved, consulted, or engaged in the performance improvement plans affecting hospital performance measures. This webinar will provide insights into the value of inter-departmental teamwork that includes engaging laboratory teams as part of the multi-disciplinary collaboration to improve processes and patient outcomes. The presentation will focus on Urine Culture and Diagnostic Stewardship and share challenges and strategies for reducing Catheter Associated Urinary Infection (CAUTI) rate by improving the urine culture ordering, and urine collection and handling process through a multi-disciplinary effort.”
