| Train your staff on respiratory hygiene, cough etiquette in time for upcoming respiratory infection season |
| "I personally like to see training start in September," says Joan M. Wideman, MS, MT, (ASCP) SLS, CIC, owner of JMW Consulting, LLC, in Clawson, MI. "Our influenza season seems to have shifted over the past few years. It traditionally peaked over the winter holidays, but now seems to peak in later January and into February, depending on locale."
The CDC recommends that facilities institute respiratory etiquette practices as a component of standard practices to prevent respiratory infections, including influenza. |
