Central Line-Associated Bloodstream Infections (CLABSI) is the chosen evidence-based topic with the collaboration of the authorized preceptor The evaluation revealed that this clinical site, staff, and patients could benefit from educational and preventative measures and help the facility meet its zero CLABSI goal. CLABSI is among the most common hospital-acquired infections (HAI) in the USA. Implementing robust infection monitoring and preventative measures has led to some success in HAI, though CLABSI still accounts for 9.9% of all primary bloodstream infections (Monegro, 2023). My preceptor and I agree that this topic can be interchangeable between community and leadership since it will provide patient and staff education, awareness, practice opportunities, sterile site care, implementation of CLABSI bundle along with other basic hang hygiene and preventative measures. It will improve the quality of life for the patient by preventing rough prolonged recovery time, stress for the whole family, long-term health complications, and mortality making it a community project. Collaborating with unit educators and the infection control department to develop creative ways and opportunities for staff education, practicing skills, assuring implementation, and monitoring adherence to help broaden their knowledge and understanding of CLABSI. Education, surveillance, practicing skills, following proper hand hygiene, central line, site care, using the checklist, and adhering to CLABSI bundle prevention. All these will be implemented and enforced during clinical hours, making it a leadership project. Reference Monegro, A. F. (2023, February 12). Hospital Acquired Infections.
