Assessing the need for infection control programs: a diagnostic approach.

Abstract

By using the PRECEDE model, we concluded that the need for standardized infection control programs in long-term care facilities is imminent and believe that the PRECEDE model has wide applicability in infection prevention and control. For example, it could be used to plan continuing education needs for the infection control department in a facility, or to plan a program to improve compliance with universal precautions or handwashing. Its use is limited only by the creativity of the planner.
