The QIPMO Multidrug-Resistant Organism (MDRO) Admission Checklist is a practical tool designed to support consistent and safe admission practices for residents with novel or targeted MDROs, including organisms like Candida auris. This checklist outlines key steps for identifying the appropriate precaution type (e.g., droplet, contact, enhanced barrier), communicating with public health and receiving facilities, preparing the resident room, and ensuring environmental hygiene and surveillance/testing processes are in place. It also highlights facility-wide best practices such as auditing hand hygiene, PPE use, and environmental cleaning. Access the checklist can be found here.
