Would this be able to help us identify where an infection originated in our facility?

Yes! ABILITY INFECTIONWATCH makes it easier and more accurate to identify and track infections. With this application, you no longer have to mark places on a printed map – you can instead use an interactive, customizable infection map to see where and when infections occur and start taking appropriate precautions.

How can this help us fight infections?

ABILITY INFECTIONWATCH standardizes the documentation and reporting of infections. It helps ensure all staff is aware of an infection and that all infections are tracked in the same manner. Additionally, it provides detailed reporting on infection rate by census, line listing, community- vs. healthcare-acquired infections and more.

Would this be able to help us demonstrate compliance with Antibiotic Stewardship and Requirements of Participation?

Yes! ABILITY INFECTIONWATCH has three reports that work together to give you a comprehensive view of antibiotic stewardship. Combined, these reports show: antibiotics that were not effective; antibiotics that caused adverse reactions by count and type of reaction; your facility’s overall antibiotic usage by prescriber, reaction, effectiveness and more.

Can this help us meet NHSN and McGeer criteria?

Yes! ABILITY INFECTIONWATCH takes the guesswork out of determining if McGeer criteria is met when logging new infections in the facility. It standardizes the collection of clinical information to assess and log precautions, treatments and outcomes – all within the application, eliminating the need for the manual work that can cause mistakes.
