The Case Manager's Guide to Antimicrobial Stewardship
Tuesday, April 30 at 12 p.m. Eastern
Pre-Approved CEs: 1 Hour RN and CCM
Antimicrobial resistant infections are present in acute care hospitals, long-term care facilities, and experienced in outpatient/ambulatory settings. The only way to slow the resistance to antibiotics is to practice and reinforce antimicrobial stewardship (AMS).
As part of the multidisciplinary team, case managers can support AMS by educating patients on the dangers of overuse and misuse of antibiotics, facilitation, and coordination of needed diagnostics to determine if antibiotics are indicated, ensure patients understand their antibiotic prescription and are adherent with the treatment protocol, and collaborate with all members of the interdisciplinary team for optimal health outcomes.
Presenter: Rebecca Perez, MSN, RN, CCM, FCM
