Hocus Pocus: Disappearing Infections
Registration closes September 30th!
Join us for an exciting educational conference where the focus is on making infections disappear through innovation, prevention, and best practices. Our theme, "Disappearing Infections," highlights the ongoing commitment of healthcare professionals to reduce healthcare-associated infections and improve patient outcomes. Through evidence-based practices, emerging standards, and real-world success stories, attendees will gain practical knowledge and actionable strategies to help make infections disappear within their own healthcare settings. Together, let's turn prevention into progress and make infections disappear—one patient, one process, and one improvement at a time.
