About Ask an IP

The Ask an IP is an educational series hosted by the Acute Communicable Disease and Control (ACDC) Infection Prevention Team to discuss the infection prevention practices in the skilled nursing facility (SNF) setting.

With the goal of fostering discussion among LA County SNFs, this program includes the following:

  • Core infection prevention concepts
  • Open and guided Q&A
  • Case studies
  • IP resources
  • Subject matter experts: IPs, nurses, physicians, epidemiologists

This series is meant to be an all teach all learn environment. Throughout the COVID-19 pandemic, we learned the importance of establishing deeper connections and better communication between Infection Prevention Team members. By working together, we can improve resident safety within Los Angeles County healthcare settings.

The 2024-2025 Ask an IP Series began on August 14, 2024 and will continue every second Wednesday of the month at 1:30pm-2:30pm until May 14, 2024. Click here to register for the series.
