Empowering Post-Acute Care providers for a healthier future.

Infection Prevention Control Partners Program (IPCPP)

Proactive Approach

By utilizing a proactive approach, we identify failed practices, create a detailed performance improvement plan, and work with the facility staff to meet and maintain compliance.

Infection Prevention Control Partners Program (IPCPP):

The IPCPP is an innovative and bold pilot program created to support Post-Acute Care settings across the country. This is a collaboration between a selective group of participating LTC Facilities and is managed by IPCnurse LLC. The goal of the program is to provide boots on the ground level of assistance aimed at closing some of the Infection Prevention Control gaps that exist at the facility level. The collaboration is tailored to adhere to the facility corporate Policies and Procedures and is aligned with all State and Federal Requirements of Participation (RoP’s) to ensure regulatory compliance.  The program in part, provides support to facilities that are ready to strengthen their Infection Control initiatives, antibiotic stewardship, and management of MDRO’s with targeted coaching and feedback.

Your center-based Infection Preventionist collaborates with their assigned IPCnurse Consultant to maintain a robust IPC program and ensure best practices. Regular meetings ensure e.g., that elements for a successful antibiotic stewardship program are being met. These meetings also facilitate shared education opportunities such as learning modules and outcome data review and feedback.
