Introduction and Safe Injection Practices

Safe Injection Practices

This issue should be on the radar screen of every infection preventionist and hospital

Do you know the ten requirements for safe injection practices by the CDC?

Are you familiar with the provisions of the CMS hospital worksheet in infection control that includes questions that will be asked on safe injection practices by the surveyors?

Are your familiar with the CMS hospital survey memo on what hospitals should be doing on safe injection practices?

Safe Injection Practices

Have you implemented the ISMP IVP guidelines?

Does your hospital have a policy on safe injection practices?

Are all staff educated on safe injection practices including your physicians?

Are all nurses educated in orientation and periodically on safe injection practices?

We do not want to see headlines that discuss unsafe practices that result in patient injury and death
