Empowering Infection-Control Champions in Healthcare
How can U.S. infection control agencies and departments support healthcare systems to create relevant infection control information that meaningfully engages America’s healthcare workers?
Partners & Funders
The Project
The COVID-19 pandemic emphasized the importance of effective Infection Control (IC) knowledge and practice. For the U.S. Centers for Disease Control & Prevention, PPL partnered with RTI International to understand the variety of healthcare worker archetypes and how healthcare information ideally transitions from Federal and State guidances to system policies, workplace protocols, and eventually staff trainings.
The Outcome
PPL led research and design activities to inform infection-control communication strategies and direct training strategies to empower front-line workers to be champions of infection control in their workplaces.
