Abstract:
Antimicrobial stewardship programs (ASPs) demonstrated poise and resilience in assisting with COVID-19 efforts across the globe, harnessing expertise in diagnostic stewardship, therapeutics, protocol development, and use of technology to rapidly expand their scope through strategic collaborations, dissemination of content expertise, and numerous contributions to the body of knowledge on COVID-19. Lessons learned from pandemic response should be used to advance the mission of ASPs and secure a "seat at the table" as health systems continue to expand and adapt to future public health crises.
