Summary
Shocking news! Hospitals are making less progress when it comes to keeping patients safe from health-care associated infections. About one in 25 inpatients suffers with an infection related to hospital care, leading to the loss of tens of thousands of lives each year. The good news is that, as a patient or an advocate, you have a real ability to reduce your chances of acquiring an infection by making infection control your top concern.
This concise book is inspired by the author's own experiences as she watched her mother endure every infection possible during a four-month hospital stay. Now you too can quickly identify the troublemakers before they find you or your loved ones.
This is a must-listen guide for all patients, advocates, family members, and visitors.
