How does SeniorCRE detect infection clusters and run antibiotic stewardship?
Infection control in most communities is a surveillance log on a clipboard and the hope that someone notices a pattern before it becomes an outbreak.
Detail
Every infection is logged with type, organism, location, and treatment. If second-floor UTIs double this month, the dashboard shows it today. Every antibiotic course is tracked for duration, appropriateness, and culture sensitivity. When the system detects a cluster — for example, three GI infections on Unit 2B inside seven days — it triggers an outbreak protocol recommendation, prompting isolation precautions, enhanced cleaning, and staff cohorting. Hand hygiene audits, PPE compliance, and environmental cleaning verification are all tracked.
Expected outcome: infection rates drop by approximately 30%, and antibiotic stewardship improves because inappropriate use is flagged early.
