Our Vision
- We will play an important role in building a future where all people can:
- Have access to accurate, up to date information about infections and what everyone can do to end preventable infection risks in healthcare
facilities;
- Feel empowered and confident about approaching any of their healthcare providers when they are concerned about infection risks;
- Have reason to believe any hospital in the state provides care excellent enough to satisfy concerns about infection risk;
- Have reason to feel safe about being in a hospital.
Our Mission
Established by the Legislature to serve
the people of Washington, the Healthcare
Associated Infections Program brings
together and meaningfully informs the
broadest possible coalition to advance the
implementation, practices, and science of
healthcare epidemiology, which empowers
infection prevention to protect the public’s
health.
