Moving the Needle on CLABSI Prevention: Share Site for California CLABSI Workgroup

On January 31, 2019, the CDPH HAI Program convened a workshop of 20 California hospitals that report 40% of all CLABSI to brainstorm about what is needed now to move the needle on CLABSI prevention.  Attendees included 31 representatives from major teaching, community, and children’s hospitals. Upon request, CDPH developed this site for participating hospitals to share CLABSI prevention information, tools, and resources.  Use of this site is by invitation only.  The link should not be shared outside of this participant group.  Information on this page has not been approved, recommended, or endorsed by CDPH.
