Monitoring infection control compliance among staff b. Ensuring all personnel are properly vaccinated c. Coordinating the infection control program d. Overseeing all instrument processing protocolIdentify four functions of infection control programs
- What is disease causation theory? Define personalistic and naturalistic disease causation using films and/or readings.Scenario: As a nurse supervisor working in a COVID 19 ward facility you must know the infection prevention and control measures to prevent cross contamination from one person to another. Applying the Theory of Patricia Benner, how will you consider that you are an expert? Expound your answer Applying the nursing theory of Katie Eriksson, how will you promote caritative caring in a covid19 positive patient?The Zoomland epidemic does not mimic a real epidemic in every respect. What is ONE way the Zoomland epidemic is not an entirely realistic simulation? A. In the Zoomland epidemic we could tell who had interacted with whom (contact tracing). In real life there is no way to do any contact tracing. B. In the Zoomland epidemic people interacted randomly with others. In real life people interact much more with some members of the population than others. C. In the Zoomland epidemic, transmission only occurred when a person came into contact with an infected person AND a suitable vector. In real life some diseases do not require a vector for successful transmission.
