Update from Infection Control Consulting Services

Since the start of the COVID-19 pandemic, ICCS has been busy providing a variety of infection prevention and control services to the healthcare sector and facility types that include nursing homes, assisted living, group homes, dental practices, behavioral health facilities, substance abuse treatment centers, physical therapy organizations, ambulatory surgery centers (ASCs), federally qualified healthcare centers, outpatient clinics, and hospitals. In addition to these healthcare facilities, the pandemic motivated ICCS to expand its support to non-healthcare businesses. We are currently providing COVID-19 strategies to companies in the entertainment, food service, and pet therapy industries, just to name a few.

Our recent successes include helping many nursing homes in several states with their CMS deficiencies and fulfilling the requirements of a directed plan of correction (DPOC). In addition, we have been busy assisting our clients with many situations relating to COVID-19 as the Delta variant has increased exponentially, vaccines have been rolled out, breakthrough infections have been occurring, and more. We have also been busy reviewing, updating, and advising clients on a multitude of federal and state updates, new programs, and mandates.

Along with pandemic assistance, we continue to provide ongoing services to our clients. These include onsite and virtual visits to assess "best practices," writing and updating annual infection prevention annual plans, performing facility risk assessments, and helping organizations achieve a wide range of goals. We also assist with department of health and accreditation agency survey preparation and policy writing.

Please continue to stay safe!
