| BAMC is committed to providing
our patients a safe environment to seek services. Controlling the spread of infection
is part of our patient safety plan and its success relies on the combined efforts
of patients, visitors, and staff. Hand washing is the corner stone of all successful infection control programs. BAMC provides staff, patients and visitors the means to frequently wash or disinfect their hands to eliminate the spread of infectious organisms. Our Infection Control Department consists of a full time registered nurse certified in infection control. All infection control activities are coordinated through an infection control committee with input from our medical staff, administrative staff and other clinical staff. All directives are based on recommendations from the Center for Disease Control and Prevention and from the WI Department of Health and Human Services. Our Infection Control Coordinator is available to answer your questions and give you tips on how you can decrease your risk of acquiring and/or transmitting an infection while seeking care at our facility. |
