Infection Prevention Liaison Program (ICAR)

Where to start?: Personal Reflections on core questions that I ask myself

nearly every day (and want you to ask yourself, too):

How can I help create

RADICAL

sustained

improvement?

CDR Gregory A. Raczniak, MD

Meet the newest member of Illinois’ HAI/AR Prevention

Team

Illinois Antimicrobial Resistance Prevention

Coordinator

1: You will need resources

– the most important being an AWESOME TEAM

How can I help create RADICAL sustained improvement?

2. Use the “So what?” test to stay focused

Example: re-focusing on what motivates me: So what? What difference will it make if we prevent HAIs?

• HAIs are:1) Preventable (meaning change is possible!)2) harmful & a source of suffering 3) Costly

Example: decide what you will and WILL NOT invest energy/resources/time in:

So, you want to make hundreds of Infection Preventionistsmanually enter susceptibility profiles into the XDRO registry? So… what will that accomplish? What will you actually do differently based on that information?

How can I help create RADICAL sustained improvement?

3. Think like an industrial/systems engineer

Make it easy & rewarding to do the right thing

• Examples: Grant to APIC Consulting for

– Infection Prevention Liaison Program

– LTC Certificate Course

Make it difficult & unpleasant to do the wrong thing

• Example: increased regulations & penalties
