The National Healthcare Safety Network (NHSN), a program by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), plays a central role in helping nursing homes track and reduce HAIs. With NHSN, long-term care facilities can monitor infection data, implement evidence-based prevention practices, and ultimately improve resident outcomes.
