Enhanced Barrier Precautions (EBP) Resource

The Association for Professionals in Infection Control and Epidemiology along with American Association of Post-Acute Care Nursing, has released a practice guidance tool and resource guide to help implement EBP in skilled long-term care facilities. The practice guidance tool outlines when EBP should be implemented for residents, provides infection control recommendations for routine care activities, and includes case study examples with a self-quiz to help reinforce learning. The resource guide also provides a comprehensive list of infection control websites and references. More information including the guide can be found here.
