Name: ______________________________Department/Institution:____________________________ Environmental Infection Control Contact hours – 1.0 Goals & Objectives Goal Appreciate the impact the facility’s environment has upon infection control. Objectives • Identify the role of Infection Control in mitigating patient risks related to indoor air quality during construction and renovation projects. • Identify the role of Infection Control in mitigating patient risks related to water damage in the health care setting. Test 1. Aspergillosis may occur in an immunocompromised host with which renovation project below. a. Demolition behind intact barriers and negative pressure with air being vented directly to the outside 50 feet from an air intake. b. Plumbing project one floor below and on a different HVAC system to remove dead legs. c. Removal of the hallway carpeting in a patient care area to revert back to tazzo flooring. d. Demolition of the east wing of building used to store old equipment on a wet drizzly day with winds from the west. 2. During one of your most recent renovation projects there was a back up of gray water from a floor drain in the basement. An appropriate response by the infection control practitioner would be to: a. Assume the role as a Safety Officer during the incident and direct staff to avoid walking through the murky water without protection on their feet and appropriately identify the location for barricades. b. Direct the clean up team to collect all damaged permanent paper records and loosely stand them up in a crate to facilitate run off and aeration while in storage in a deep freeze. c. Instruct staff to use alcohol gel during the water use restriction and divert procedures to an area where water restrictions are not in place. d. All of the above. - 11 -
