Abstract:
A phased Candida auris screening program was implemented in a large acute care hospital system. This program used high-risk criteria as outlined by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention to successfully identify C auris early in the hospital stay. Interdisciplinary collaboration enabled continuous quality improvement which improved screening processes for early detection and implementation of isolation precautions. Ultimately, safety for patients and staff was improved.
