Performance improvement and implementation science: Infection prevention competencies for current and future role development.
The Association for Professionals in Infection Control and Epidemiology, Inc, developed its first model of infection preventionist (IP) competency in 2011. The model is based on the principles of patient safety, professional and practice standards, and core competencies identified through research c...

The model is based on the principles of patient safety, professional and practice standards, and core competencies identified through research conducted by the Certification Board of Infection Control and Epidemiology, Inc. In addition, the model highlights 4 domains that are predicted to be key areas for future competency development. Performance improvement (PI) and implementation represent 1 of the 4 forward-focused domains. Concurrently, the inclusion of implementation science (IS) in the competency model is consistent with the research goals established by the Association for Professionals in Infection Control and Epidemiology, Inc, in its 2020 strategic plan. This article explains the importance of PI and IS and describes their relevance to the current and future IP role development. Significant challenges such as role delineation and compression are discussed. The need for the IP to acquire new competencies at integrating, as well as differentiating, PI and IS are explored in terms of emerging issues and trends. pubtype: Academic Journal doctype: review standards tables/charts Journal Article ougenre: Article language: English refInfo: holdings: @attributes: islocal: N |
