Preventing healthcare-associated infections (HAIs) is a top priority for CDC and its partners in public health and healthcare.
Healthcare-associated infections (HAIs) are infections that patients get while or soon after receiving health care. HAIs are a serious threat to healthcare safety. Preventing HAIs is a top priority for CDC and its partners in public health and health care.
Hai started with silk, and our early pieces were about experimenting with, and stretching, the possibilities of the fabric. In time, this focus on silk has broadened to encompass a whole palette of finely crafted materials including velvet, lace and pearls.
By definition, HAIs are infections that happen within: Forty-eight hours of arrival or hospital admission. Three days after discharge from a hospital or surgical center. Thirty days of a surgical procedure. Anyone receiving care at a healthcare facility can get nosocomial infections.
Healthcare-associated infections (HAIs) are infections people get while they are receiving health care for another condition. HAIs can happen in any health care facility, including hospitals, ambulatory surgical centers, end-stage renal disease facilities, and long-term care facilities.
CDC funds a network of 64 health department Healthcare-associated Infections and Antimicrobial Resistance (HAI/AR) Programs to detect, prevent and respond to HAI/AR. Programs improve and protect healthcare safety and promote quality of care for all.
